Type 2 diabetes is a serious disease that can disrupt the work of many organs. It's all about the sugar level. Its high or low indicators can lead to various negative consequences.

Yes, diabetes can cause an abdominal disorder. The work of the gastrointestinal tract is disturbed, due to which a person feels pain. In particular, people may experience discomfort in the throat, heartburn, bloating and nausea. Vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation are common.

“The liver and pancreas are also considered part of the gastrointestinal tract and can be affected by diabetes,” the study states. It is noted that researchers specifically studied problems with the gastrointestinal tract, which can be provoked by diabetes.

Another disease of the digestive tract is called gastroparesis. With it, food stays in the stomach longer than necessary. This happens because the nerves that move food through the digestive tract are damaged. Accordingly, the muscles of the stomach do not work properly.

According to the Express, gastroparesis most often occurs in people with high blood sugar levels that have not been controlled for a long time. In this case, the nerves throughout the body are damaged, which also affects the work of the digestive tract.
