Please I need mature minds to come in and give me what I need. In my area (Southeastern Nigeria) there is a sickness that mostly affects little children when their mothers get pregnant again. It is characterized by fever, tiredness and loss of appetite (I may not be totally correct though). They treat it in some traditional ways and some women said the only treatment for it is to separate the child from his/her pregnant mother. In my dialect the sickness is called ‘AGWA’. I have been asking questions to understand how the pregnancy of a mother can possibly make her child sick. Who knows of this and please what is it called in your area and how is it treated. Also if you have any explanations as to how and why it happens I will appreciate it.

Complications associated with type 2 diabetes

For many people, type 2 diabetes can be effectively managed. It can affect virtually all your organs and lead to serious complications, including:

Skin problems, such as bacterial or fungal infections

Nerve damage, or neuropathy, which can cause a loss of sensation or numbness and tingling in your extremities as well as digestive issues, such as vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation

Poor circulation to the feet, which makes it hard for your feet to heal when you have a cut or an infection and can also lead to gangrene and loss of the foot or leg

Hearing impairment

Retinal damage, or retinopathy, and eye damage, which can cause deteriorating vision, glaucoma, and cataracts

Cardiovascular diseases such as high blood pressure, narrowing of the arteries, angina, heart attack, and stroke

Kidney damage and kidney failure
