Generally speaking, elderly diabetics generally refer to diabetics over 60 years old, but according to the current data reports, most of these diabetics suffer from type 2 diabetes, so they are characterized by slow onset and early asymptomatic symptoms, especially some elderly diabetics are diagnosed with diabetes after complications.

Although most of these elderly diabetic patients do not have the typical symptoms of "three more and one less", they are prone to diseases such as heart, brain, liver and kidney. So we should pay attention to our health. Let's analyze the common precautions they need.

Center point 1: First, elderly diabetics should remember a "slow" formula.

Patients diagnosed with senile diabetes often feel dizzy, or their blood pressure is too high or too low, and their heart function is poor. They should pay attention to the word "slow" when they work, walk and go upstairs, and keep the principle of "slow", that is, get up slowly, because slow is the only way to be steady, and it is not easy to fall down, so as not to induce other diabetic complications, otherwise they will fall down carelessly, and the constitution of the elderly can't stand this crime.

For the elderly and frail sugar friends, it is forbidden to go to dangerous areas, such as snow and ice in winter, rain in summer, urban areas and other dangerous places to avoid accidents.

Elderly diabetics can choose assistive devices when traveling, such as the elderly with mobility difficulties, and can choose a fully integrated crutch: it can become the third leg of the elderly, and play a certain role in stabilizing the center of gravity and preventing slipping.

Central point 2: Elderly diabetic patients should pay attention to the time of medication.

What needs to be remembered is not to exercise immediately after taking the medicine, especially for elderly diabetic patients with high blood pressure or poor sleep. After taking antihypertensive drugs, hypoglycemic drugs and sedatives, you should stay in bed 1 hour before exercise, and the medication schedule should be standardized and reasonable.

Center 3: Elderly diabetics should prepare reasonable clothes every day.

For example, you can choose your own shoes. For people who love candy, the shoes should fit and be loose, and the shoelaces should not be too long to prevent tripping when they are loose. You should choose shoes with good anti-skid cloth soles or rubber soles, and pay attention to the timely cutting of shoes and socks.

There is no doubt that elderly diabetics should insist on exercising. No matter what age, people should pay attention to strengthening physical exercise, because it can not only strengthen muscles and bones, but also enhance flexibility, which is especially helpful for improving the sensitivity of the elderly and preventing injuries. Tips: Through the above study, we should study hard, practice more things that elderly diabetic patients should pay attention to, and spread them to friends and family around us to prevent accidents.
