Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 15th June '24
A medical issue may be causing numbness in your arm at night. Peripheral neuropathy often occurs with diabetes. Excess glucose damages arm nerves, creating that vacant feeling. Controlling sugar levels helps reduce tingling or numbness. Your diet, exercise, prescribed medication — these properly manage blood sugar. Achieve healthy targets to relieve neuropathy discomfort affecting your limb.

Mix-up: Glimpride 2 mg instead of 1 mg

Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 15th June '24
Your dad took too high a dosage of his medicine. He could feel woozy, shaky or tired. Glimpride 2 mg is stronger than his 1 mg dose. It can cause blood sugar levels to drop way too low. Give him sugary foods or drinks to boost his sugar. Watch him closely. Let the doctor know right away what occurred.

Is diabetes causing smaller reproductive organ from masturbation?
i have diabetes for 2yrs or more but till last year my repriductive organ is normal but forcpast 2months when masterbating also my organ is smaller in size.. but ejaculation occurs normal but size is small. is it due to diabetes or over masterbation
Dr. Babita Goel
General Physician
Answered on 15th June '24
Diabetes mellitus can actually be an obstacle to male and female reproductive functions. Persistent high blood sugar levels can cause nerve damage and blood flow restriction as well as a hormonal imbalance. Moreover, temporary swelling haemorrhage due to the fatigued tissues may be caused by excessive masturbation. This one, I should say, requires the patients and doctors to focus on the effective management of diabetes through medication, proper diet, and regular exercise. Recommend you to visit a urologist for personalized treatment.
