Diabetes is a disease that can destroy the body for a long time, without the person even being aware that he has it. Given that high blood sugar "doesn't hurt", many discover the disease late. Lack of insulin can lead to serious health complications, such as kidney problems, vision impairment, cardiovascular problems. That is why it is important to recognize certain symptoms that may indicate diabetes in time.

A feeling of hardness

In case you feel some unpleasant firmness or hardness in your hands or feet, be sure to measure your blood sugar level. Because this symptom indicates that a nerve has been damaged due to increased blood sugar.

Skin problems

Bad skin pigmentation, frequent rashes and problems with purulent pimples often arise as a result of diabetes and are a sign that something is wrong in the body.

Blurred vision

Too high a level of glucose in the body can lead to damage to the small blood vessels in the eye, which cause vision problems. The image usually becomes blurred and distorted, and in some people sensitivity to bright light occurs.

Slow wound healing

If wounds or cuts on the body heal slowly, you should see a doctor, because this is one of the symptoms of high blood sugar.

Weight loss

Any sudden loss of weight and a large number of kilograms very often indicates diabetes. If you eat regularly and normally, but despite this you are losing weight and cannot gain weight, it is very certain that your blood glucose is elevated.

Constant feeling of thirst

High blood sugar causes frequent trips to the toilet and a constant need to urinate, especially at night. People with diabetes also experience dry lips and a constant feeling of thirst.

Lack of energy

Feeling tired and lacking energy, for no particular reason, even after a good night's sleep, is one of the symptoms of this insidious disease, reports Novosti.
