Early symptoms of diabetes in elderly do not typically make more use of complications as the first symptom, diabetes, bone disease is one of them. From low blood sugar, urine sugar emergence of a large number of calcium from the urine discharge, thereby reducing serum calcium. When the kidneys lose too much calcium, reduced intestinal absorption of calcium, parathyroid hormone can occur secondary hyperparathyroidism functional, caused by subperiosteal bone, which osteoporosis, bone thinning, fibrous osteitis, pelvis and the abnormal pathological fracture. Such pathological changes of long bones especially the limbs, ribs, collarbone, pelvis is prominent. Secondly, osteoporosis (calcium) metabolism and phosphorus, magnesium is closely related to, when the calcium from the excessive discharge of urine, magnesium, phosphorus discharges also increased, resulting in abnormal calcium metabolism, leading to osteoporosis. Due to skin infections involving bone, bone disease also led to one of the reasons for diabetes.
Once middle-aged and elderly spinal acid leg pain, fingers twitch, gastrocnemius muscle cramps, especially in the pelvis or abnormal pathological fracture, in addition to calcium and bone to do X-ray examination should check blood sugar, urine sugar.
For the treatment of diabetic bone disease, the key lies in the active treatment of diabetes and, if necessary, choose the joint application of calcitonin and calcium to promote bone cells.
