I am diabetic. I take insulin twice. Occasionally the sugar goes down around noon. Then the chest throbs, sweats, the head becomes light. For this you often have to eat sugar. Then the sugar rises again. What is the salvation from this? –Abdul Matin, Pabna
Eliminate the cause of low blood sugar or hypoglycemia first. One of the reasons is not eating the right amount at the right time. Those who take insulin should take food at least six times a day. Eat fruit or light snacks from 11 am to 12 noon after breakfast, then sugar will not be excessively reduced in the afternoon. Again in the afternoon and at bedtime eat breakfast twice more. If you have hypo in the afternoon, you can tell your doctor to reduce the morning insulin level a little. Again there are some modern insulins to reduce hypo, you can take them. Kidney and liver problems cause recurrent hypoglycemia. Check these out. Remember that repeated hypoglycemia is not good. It damages neurons in the brain, impairs memory and increases the risk of heart disease. Falling can cause accidents. Take care not to have hypoglycemia.

It seems that you are suffering from chronic periodontitis. From here, the bond between teeth and bones becomes weak, resulting in pain during the bite. On the other hand, the gums move and the roots of the teeth become exposed.
In this case, get treatment for scaling and gum disease quickly without delay on the advice of a dentist. With this very simple treatment, if necessary, you will get well if you follow the proper rules of medicine and oral care. However, if the tooth coating becomes more eroded, filling may be required.
