During the treatment of diabetes, doctors usually advise diabetic patients to do some exercise to help them recover from diabetes. So, what should diabetics pay attention to during exercise? Next, please enjoy the content I collected for you online.

Precautions for diabetic patients before exercise:

After fully estimating the condition of diabetes, you can make a personalized exercise plan and make the following preparations:

Loose and comfortable sportswear and elastic sports shoes, sweat-absorbent cotton socks.

● Take biscuits, candy bars or sugary drinks and water with you to prevent hypoglycemia.

● Conditional people should monitor their blood sugar before exercise to understand the metabolism in the body. Primary blood glucose >; Exercise should stop at 16. 1mmol/l, at which time exercise will only accelerate metabolic disorder; Blood sugar < 5.4 mmol/l, you must eat snacks or fruits to exercise. If the blood sugar of 1 type diabetes patients is higher than: 13.4mmol/l, and there are ketone bodies in urine, it is best not to exercise.

● Drink boiled water before exercise to ensure sufficient water, and do warm-up activities for 5- 10 minutes first to avoid muscle and joint injuries during exercise.

● Adjust diet and medicine: it is best to eat sugary food or snacks 0-3 hours before exercise1; If you use insulin, you must discuss with your doctor to adjust the dose during exercise.

● It is best for diabetics to travel together, especially during high-intensity exercise. They should tell their companions that they are diabetic and what is the manifestation of hypoglycemia, so as to help them in time when symptoms appear.

● Wear a diabetes card: It is helpful for first aid in case of emergency such as ketoacidosis.

* Precautions for diabetic patients during exercise:

Be sure to pay close attention to blood sugar to see if there are symptoms of hypoglycemia.

● First of all, you should know whether your exercise is up to standard by measuring your heart rate during exercise.

● Observe whether the best exercise time arranged by yourself is appropriate.

Low insulin injection of diabetic patients, every 30 minutes of moderate intensity exercise, should eat 10g ~ 15g biscuits and other sugary food 2 pieces.

● Pay attention to monitoring blood sugar: If you want to exercise for a longer time, when you plan to switch to another exercise, or when the original exercise becomes more intense and longer, it is best to measure your blood sugar every 30 minutes.

● If you have chest tightness, chest pain, dizziness, slow heartbeat, loss of consciousness or even blood pressure drop and slow breathing during exercise, it may be that you don't exercise enough at ordinary times, and sudden strenuous exercise causes insufficient blood supply to the heart and brain, leading to shock. It may also be that the patient has a potential cardiovascular complication, which is induced by exercise and should be sent to the hospital immediately for diagnosis and treatment.

● If you have blurred vision, hazy consciousness, dizziness, palpitation, excessive sweating and pale face during exercise, it may be hypoglycemia. You should stop exercising immediately and eat sugary food immediately; If you are in a trance, you should give the patient sugar water and send him to the hospital for rescue if necessary.

Strengthening communication with peers, helping each other in sports, improving participation awareness and interest in sports are conducive to the persistence of sports and avoiding pulling muscles and spraining joints during sports.

* Precautions for diabetic patients after exercise:

● Don't stop immediately after exercise. To resume exercise or overall exercise, it is necessary to stretch the main muscle groups, such as lifting legs, stretching legs, stretching arms, bending over, * * *, and shaking lower limbs.

● Walk for a while after long-distance running until the heart rate returns to the pre-exercise level.

● Wipe your sweat in time and put on your coat to avoid catching cold.

Exercise intensity is low, the time is more than 45 ~ 60 minutes, even if there is no hypoglycemia, you should take the initiative to add meals to avoid delayed hypoglycemia.

● Monitoring blood sugar: Blood sugar should be measured immediately after exercise and several times in the next few hours. Because muscles consume glucose during exercise, and after exercise, muscles need to take glucose from the blood to store muscle glycogen again. This process takes several hours, so hypoglycemia may occur a few hours after exercise, and it mostly occurs in the middle of the night, so pay close attention.

● It is best to take a bath in time after exercise, which can not only clean the panel, but also promote blood circulation, help restore the whole body function, reduce the excitement during exercise and quickly return to normal.

* Other precautions for diabetic patients

● Morning exercise is not as early as possible. Many people think that the air is fresh in the morning, the environment is quiet and the exercise effect is good, but in fact, in spring, autumn and winter, air pollutants are not easy to spread before 6 am, and the best exercise time should be when the sun just comes out.

● Diabetic patients should not exercise on an empty stomach. The best exercise time is after meals 1 hour, and strenuous exercise should be avoided at the peak of oral drugs or insulin. If necessary, the dosage should be adjusted by blood sugar monitoring.

● Patients who inject insulin should avoid injecting insulin in the muscles of exercise, so as not to accelerate the absorption of insulin during exercise and cause hypoglycemia. Abdomen is the most ideal injection site for long-distance running, basketball, football, swimming, cycling and other sports.

● Foggy days are not suitable for morning exercises. The droplets contain a lot of dust and harmful substances from pollution sources such as acid and benzene. At this time, physical exercise will inhale too many toxic and harmful gases, which will easily cause tracheitis, pharyngitis and rhinitis, and endanger health.

● It is not advisable to run on a busy roadside. A large number of harmful gases emitted by automobile exhaust will be inhaled by athletes in large quantities, which is harmful and useless.

● Children and adolescents with diabetes should take part in basketball, volleyball, tennis and track and field sports, which can bring some impact and contact to limbs and stimulate the growth and development of bones, while adult patients with diabetes can also prevent osteoporosis by engaging in the above sports.

● When exercising in hot summer, be sure to drink plenty of water, preferably light salt water and Jianlibao, so as to avoid sweating a lot and losing a lot of electrolyte water, resulting in muscle spasm and weakness.
