Why Patients with Diabetes Have Swelling Legs

Diabetes has four typical symptoms which are known to most of us such as increased hungry, increased thirst, increased urine and lost body weight. When diabetes takes place, the whole body will be in high sugar, which if lasts for a long time, will cause damage to the whole body’s organs such as heart, liver. When there appears swelling in leg, it indicates that there may be damage in the kidney. Generally speaking, after 25 year’s developing, the rate of diabetic nephropathy from diabetes is as high as 50%. In the period of diabetic nephropathy, patients may suffer from swelling in leg, which is really a symptom or complication of diabetes.
What should we do to treat diabetes with swelling leg? Firstly, we should treat diabetes. The best therapy for diabetes is stem cell, which has multi-potential and can differentiate into many kinds of functional cells to treat disease caused by cell damage. For patients with diabetes, the islet beta cells which can secrete insulin is damaged, which leads to the insufficiency of insulin, thus causing increased or high blood sugar. Stem cell can repair the damaged islet beta cells and recover their function. In this case, insulin can secrete normally, which treats diabetes fundamentally.
For the damage in kidney disease, we use immunotherapy which can be divided into 6 steps generally: immune diagnosis, immune clearance, immune inhibition, immune tolerance, immune adjustment and immune protection. In immune adjustment and immune protection period, Chinese Medicine and stem cells are applied. Chinese Medicine contains many Chinese herbs, which can repair the damaged intrinsic cells and create a good environment for the stem cell therapy. Stem cell can differentiate into cells which the kidney needs even if it is necrotic already.
