Lalu Prasad Yadav undergoes treatment at hospital for sores: What causes body sores and what is the line of treatment

RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has arrived in Delhi, along with his wife Rabri Devi, for treatment at AIIMS, after being admitted to a hospital in Patna for a brief period. As per reports, his health worsened on Wednesday morning. He was under intensive medical observation at Paras Hospital, Patna where doctors said that his blood sugar and BP levels had spiked, leading to the sudden health crisis. Talking to reporters, his son Tejashwi Yadav said his father had developed sores on his back and an arm.

In Delhi, he is scheduled to undergo detailed medical tests where doctors will monitor his blood sugar levels and other health parameters. Dr Prakash Sinha, Head of Pulmonary Medicine at Paras Hospital, said, "He also had a fever and has been given medication for that. When he arrived, he was a little low, but soon he started responding to the treatments and became alert... He talked to everyone. He has to go to Delhi today." "He was kept in the emergency ward where his condition improved after intravenous therapy. He wanted to know if he could go to Delhi in an air ambulance. We asked him to go ahead," he added.
