Diabetes doctor answers himself why having “diabetes” at a young age is more dangerous than when older. In an era where convenience and technology play a greater role in daily life, diabetes , which was once seen as a disease of the elderly, has become a silent threat that increasingly threatens young people. And it is still another misunderstanding that diabetes tends to occur in older people. In this regard, Dr. Ekkalak Wanothayaroj, Director of the Theptarin Diabetes, Thyroid, and Endocrine Center, revealed that

“We found that type 2 diabetes patients are getting younger, which is diabetes that occurs in people who tend to have bad behaviors and often occurs in older people. But the problem we are facing worldwide right now is that bad behaviors affect us since childhood. Therefore, the onset of the disease is getting earlier and earlier. Currently, there is a definition that those who have diabetes before the age of 40 are considered young diabetics. However, the younger the diabetes is, the higher the risk. Currently, there
are people who have diabetes before the age of 30. These people are at high risk, indicating that the disease is severe. They develop diabetes at a young age, have many complications, and are not able to take good care of themselves. Therefore, when compared to general diabetes, we may think that people who have diabetes at a young age do not need to do much and can wait. But that is not true because this group of people has a more severe disease and is more likely to have complications.
Imagine if this group of people were 50 years old, if it were an average person with diabetes, it would only be for a few years. But if it was someone who had diabetes since the age of 20-30, it means that they have been living with diabetes for 20 years. Therefore, blood vessels will deteriorate, and various complications will follow.
Currently, diabetes in young people is being closely monitored and campaigned for in the medical field. They are a group that we must urgently prevent and control. On the patient side, they may say that they are still young and do not need to do much, even though in reality This group is the โปรโมชั่นพิเศษจาก UFABET สมัครตอนนี้ รับโบนัสทันที group that needs to be strictest. Therefore, we must campaign. If we don’t check our health, we won’t find it. If we find it and we’re not strict, we won’t be able to prevent complications.”
