Kidney diseases common in diabetic patients, early diagnose can control progression of the disease
About 30% of patients with Type 1 (juvenile onset) diabetes and 10-40% of those with Type 2 (adult onset) diabetes will eventually suffer from kidney failure: Dr Chhaminder Jeet Singh
“As high blood sugar level can cause multi problems in the body, while kidney diseases are most common in people with diabetes. About 30% of patients with Type 1 (juvenile onset) diabetes and 10-40% of those with Type 2 (adult onset) diabetes will eventually suffer from kidney failure”, said Dr Chhaminder Jeet Singh, Consultant Nephrologist and Renal Transplant Physician, Grecian Super Specialty Hospital, Mohali.
While interacting with senior citizens on ‘Diabetes and its effects on Kidneys’, Dr Chhaminder Jeet Singh further said albumin/protein in the urine, high blood pressure, ankle and leg swelling, leg cramps, going to the bathroom more often at night, high levels of urea and creatinine in blood, less need for insulin or anti-diabetic medications, morning sickness, nausea and vomiting, weakness, paleness and anaemia and itching, are few sings which indicates that the diabetic patients are suffering from kidney diseases.
Early diagnosis of kidney diseases and diabetes can have lifetime benefits by controlling the progression of the disease, increasing life expectancy, decreasing the humanistic and economic burden, he further added.
Meanwhile, Dr Pooja Chauhan, Consultant General Medicine, Grecian Super Specialty Hospital, Mohali, said, “The earliest sign of diabetic kidney disease is an increased excretion of albumin in the urine. This is present long before the usual tests done in your doctor’s office show evidence of kidney disease, so it is important for you to have this test on a yearly basis.”
Diabetes in India is a growing health concern, with over half the population at risk of developing the condition at some point in their lives. In India, more than 77 million adults are living with diabetes. Researchers predict that this will increase to 134 million by 2045.

Chandigarh 15 November, 2021: In order to create awareness on Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease (COPD), a team of Doctors from Alchemist-Ojas Hospitals Panchkula shared various facts and myths regarding diseases related with lungs. Present on the occasion were Dr Sunny Virdi & Dr Vishal Sharma Consultant Pulmonary Medicine from Alchemist Hospital Panchkula.
You may have COPD –Increased breathlessnessFrequent coughing (with and without sputum)WheezingTightness in the chest
Throughout the world millions of people are affected by COPD Diseases emphysema, chronic bronchitis, refractory (non-reversible) asthma, and some forms of bronchiectasis. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is an umbrella term used to describe progressive lung diseases. This disease is characterized by increasing breathlessness.
Shedding light on the ailment Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and its treatments, Dr. Sunny Virdi, Consultant AlchemistOjas Hospital Panchkula said,“COPD 2nd Largest killer after Heart Problems & Cancer worldwide and India has become COPD Capital of World. Many peoplemistake their increased breathlessness and coughing as a normal part of aging. In the early stages of the disease, you may not notice the symptoms. COPD can develop for years without noticeable shortness of breath. You begin to see the symptoms in the more developed stages of the disease. Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a progressive form of lung disease ranging from mild to severe. It is characterized by a restriction of airflow into and out of the lungs that makes breathing difficult. “
Sharing his experience Dr Vishal Sharma Consultant Pulmonology, Alchemist Hospital Panchkula said “COPD most often occurs in people 40 years of age and older who have a history of smoking. These may be individuals who are current or former smokers. Not everybody but most of the individuals who have COPD (about 90% of them) have smoked. COPD can also occur in those who have had long-term contact with harmful lung irritants in the workplace like chemicals, dust, or fumes, organic cooking fuel, may also cause COPD. Even if an individual has never smoked or been exposed to pollutants for an extended period of time, they can still develop COPD. ‘COPD prevalence is around 5.5 to 7.55% in Indian. ’ Recent studies suggest prevalence rate of COPD in males is as high as 22% in men and 19% in females.
On this occasion Dr Sunny Virdi also said “Many sufferers have trouble walking short distances and are especially susceptible to illness and pneumonia. Often, sufferers need oxygen support 24 hours per day. If you show signs of emphysema or chronic bronchitis you may have COPD. The long-term effects of COPD result in an enlargement of the right side of the heart and eventual death.” There is no permanent cure for COPD, but treatment options are available to prevent more damage and improve quality of life.’’
Dr Sunny Virdi further added, ‘’Also, as the temperature drops, people having COPD are more prone to illness. The symptom becomes more aggravated during colder weather. The effects of cold weather on the lungs can be extreme and chronic exposure to cold environments is known to cause dramatic changes to the respiratory system. If a COPD patient develops COVID , it really life threatening.
The lungs provide oxygen to the bloodstream and the heart pumps blood, delivering oxygen to various parts throughout the body. With an onset of low to extreme temperatures blood vessels begin to narrow, restricting blood flow and depriving the heart of oxygen. The heart is forced to pump harder, which ultimately increases blood pressure. In mild winters particularly, the largest strain on the respiratory system can be found, leading to a higher rate of cold-related mortality among the elderly. That’s why it is important that you talk to your doctor as soon as you notice any of these symptoms. Ask your doctor about taking a spirometry (Pulmonary Function Test) test. ‘’
‘’Early screening can identify COPD before major loss of lung function occurs. Most cases of COPD are caused by inhaling pollutants; that includes smoking (cigarettes, pipes, cigars, etc.), and second-hand smoke. Fumes, chemicals and dust found in many work environments are contributing factors for many individuals who develop COPD.
