Overview

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks and destroys insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body cannot produce enough insulin, causing high blood sugar levels. It commonly develops in children and young adults but can occur at any age.
Carbuncle
Carbuncle is a cluster of interconnected boils causing deeper skin infection.
