Anant completed his journey despite many health problems. He has problems like obesity and asthma. Apart from this, Anant Ambani’s condition Cushing’s syndrome also came out. What is this disease and what kind of problems does it cause, let’s know about it.
Cushing’s syndrome occurs when the level of cortisol hormone in the body remains very high for a long time. Cortisol, also known as the stress hormone, helps the body deal with stress. However, its excess can lead to many problems.
Excess cortisol hormone and Cushing’s syndrome can cause a thick hump on the patient’s body, a very round face and pink or purple stretch marks on the skin. There is also a risk of high blood pressure or bone damage due to Cushing’s syndrome. It can also increase the risk of type-2 diabetes.
Why does this problem occur?
Cushing’s syndrome is caused by too much cortisol in the body. Cortisol is a hormone that is produced in the adrenal glands.
Cushing’s syndrome can also occur in people taking glucocorticoid drugs. These drugs are often used to reduce inflammation in the body, suppress the immune system and treat asthma, allergies and some skin problems.
This problem can also be caused by some other types of tumors, including adrenal cortical tumors.
