Dr Amitabha Saha Studies the Connection Between the Hypertension, Diabetes, and Kidney Disease

KOLKATA, India - June 15, 2022 - PRLog -- Hypertension is a disease that affects around 234 million Indian adults according to the Indian Heart Journal. It is a condition that is caused by inadequate exercise, consumption of alcohol, lack of nutritious diet and other lifestyle factors. Diabetes is a disease that affects 72.9 million Indian adults as of 2017 according to Healthline.com. It is also caused by the same lifestyle factors that cause hypertension. Moreover, those who develop hypertension also tend to develop diabetes and vice versa. These two conditions are very much linked together.

According to the American Diabetes Association, hypertension is linked inextricably with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes. Hence, Dr Amitabha Saha as the best kidney specialist in Kolkata is ready to investigate the relationship between hypertension and diabetes.

First, let us look at Type 1 diabetes. Patients with Type 1 diabetes usually get hypertension because they develop kidney disease, known as diabetic nephropathy. Around 30% of Type 1 diabetes patients develop the condition. Hence, as a specialist in the fields of diabetes, hypertension, and kidney disease, Dr Amitabha Saha is qualified to cater to these individual conditions as well as the interconnection between them all. Moreover, understanding how the patient has to be treated and what medication regimen to put him or her on, is a very important part of the diagnosis and recovery.

Type 2 diabetic patients, however, can develop hypertension as soon as or near the time they are diagnosed with diabetes itself. Therefore, they are also at risk for Kidney disease.

"I understand the relationships between diabetes, hypertension and the likely outcome of it which is kidney disease. These three are often mutually linked, such that one patient at the risk of one disease, is at the risk of the other two as well. Hence, in my experience, I am eager to study the relationship between these three conditions and help my patients achieve a holistic, 360-degree care in their lives," says Dr Amitabha Saha.

Hence, in conclusion, Dr Amitabha Saha, the best kidney specialist in Kolkata, is ready to treat patients not individually as diabetic patients or hypertension patients. He will ensure that each is treated individualistically keeping in mind that they are prone to develop either of the conditions having developed one of them. Keeping this treatment idea in mind, Dr Amitabha Saha is determined to study the linkage between all three conditions. Moreover, since they are all linked to poor lifestyle changes, they can easily be controlled and managed not just with medication.
