Hayatabad Medical Complex on Friday arranged a seminar and held a march in collaboration with Mahboob School of Physiotherapy..

The march started from Mahboob School of Physiotherapy and ended in Hayatabad Medical Complex. The organizer Muhammad Zubair emphasized the importance of awareness of diabetes and ways of its prevention.  The staff and the students held placards and banners about the early signs of the illness. It is worthy to be mentioned that on a national TV channel, Prof. A. H. Amir suggested that the best treatment of diabetes was to eat less and work more. 

Then he highlighted that exercise played a vital role in preventing diabetes and its complications.  The second step was to have a balanced diet and timely medication. He also warned about the use of soft drinks which was the cause of many illnesses since they had high content of sugar and chemicals. 

He suggested the Health Ministry should make sure that “injurious for health” be written on such drinks as was inscribed on cigarette packs. The efforts of Chief Executive HMC and Prof. A.H. Amir, Dr. Said Ali Khan and their team were praiseworthy in arranging this event. Dr. Mahboob ur Rahman highlighted the role of physiotherapy and exercise in the prevention and management of diabetes.

The march was led by Prof Muhammad Zubair Khan Chief Executive Hayatabad Medical Complex (HMC), Dr. Said Ali Khan MS Hayatabad Medical Complex (HMC), Dr. Iftikhar, Dr. Mahboob ur Rahman, Chairman Mahboob School of Physiotherapy and Dr. Muslim from Mahboob School of Physiotherapy.
