Will Pediatric Diabetes Heal on Its Own?

Question

My son has recently been urinating frequently, eating a lot, feeling hungry quickly, and gaining weight rapidly. After a thorough check-up at the hospital, we discovered that he has pediatric diabetes. Some friends around me say that pediatric diabetes is not serious and will heal on its own. Is that true?

Answer

Pediatric diabetes is different from adult diabetes, but it also does not heal on its own. The main causes are usually genetic factors across generations and dietary issues. Pediatric diabetes is primarily due to insufficient insulin secretion, leading to disordered metabolism of glucose, proteins, and electrolytes in the body. In treatment, the use of anesthetized insulin as a basic method is required, with regular blood sugar level checks. Diet control is also necessary. If pediatric diabetes is well-controlled, complications generally will not occur again.
