Diabetes is a common disease that affects millions of people worldwide. In addition, there are a huge number of people who have diabetes without even knowing it. Several main signs will indicate a high risk of high blood sugar.
Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body does not produce enough of the hormone insulin or simply does not respond to it. As a rule, the disease is discovered accidentally during a routine examination. The main problem of early diagnosis lies in symptoms that remain unnoticed for a long time.
According to the American therapist from The Joint Chiropractic, in the first stages of the disease, some "strange" signs may appear that signal problems in the body.
Vision
Some patients notice that their vision has improved somewhat. This is caused by slight changes in the composition of the fluid in the eyes, which affect vision.
Itchy skin
Diabetes can also cause persistent itching. As a rule, an unpleasant feeling regularly appears in the hands, feet and lower legs.
Hearing
In addition, about 30 percent of patients notice hearing loss. The fact is that with diabetes, the blood vessels and nerves of the inner ear are damaged, which can eventually lead to complete hearing loss.
Known signs of the disease, which include frequent urges to urinate, numbness of the hands and feet, or a feeling of constant thirst, may not appear, doctors warned. The most common symptoms include feeling very tired or taking a long time to heal wounds and cuts.
