Hand Problems and Management for Children with Diabetes: A Narrative Review
Background: One of the most prevalent diseases in the world nowadays is diabetes. It's a chronic condition that significantly affects the lives of children and teenagers, in addition to their relatives and caregivers. Insulin deficiency is the result of pancreatic β-cell destruction in type 1 diabetes, a chronic autoimmune illness. Diabetic subjects are more likely to experience a variety of musculoskeletal symptoms, which might impair their quality of life and cause impairment. Decreased hand strength and dexterity are now known to be diabetic complications. Objective: This study aimed to emphasize the detrimental impacts of hand diseases linked to diabetes and to talk about their multidisciplinary care, which may be crucial for diabetic patients' clinical outcomes. Methods: An extensive literature search was conducted across multiple databases, including PubMed, Scopus,Science Direct, and Google Scholar, to identify studies related to hand problems and their management in diabetes. Only the most recent or thorough investigation, from 2006 to 2025, was taken into account. The writer evaluated relevant literature references as well. Documents written in languages other than English have been ignored. Papers that were not regarded as significant scientific research included dissertations, oral presentations, conference abstracts, and unpublished manuscripts were excluded. Conclusion: Therefore, significant pathology in diabetes may be revealed by the hand, and clinical evaluation should ideally consider this. Consequently, additional research is fundamentally needed to ascertain the effectiveness of physical and occupational therapy for diabetes-related hand diseases as well as to create strategies for preventing their subsequent disorders.
