Blood sugar spikes (hyperglycemia) involve elevated blood glucose levels due to various factors like medications, diet, or underlying conditions. Prolonged spikes can cause serious health complications.
Blood sugar spikes, also known as hyperglycemia, refer to a condition where blood glucose levels rise above the normal range. This can occur due to various factors, including medication side effects, dietary choices, underlying medical conditions (such as diabetes), stress, illness, or lack of physical activity. Symptoms of blood sugar spikes can include increased thirst, frequent urination, blurred vision, fatigue, headache, and in severe cases, confusion, seizures, or coma. Prolonged or repeated blood sugar spikes can lead to long-term complications affecting the cardiovascular system, kidneys, nerves, and eyes.
