Symptoms of diabetes are being researched on a regular basis. We’re continually discovering new things about the link between Diabetes and other factors, prevention strategies, and successful Diabetes management thanks to medical studies....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
The following are the most generally recognized Diabetes symptoms, according to Healthline.
1. Blurry vision
Sugar cannot enter the cells of diabetics, thus it accumulates in the blood.
This can lead to difficulties in a variety of areas throughout your body over time.
High blood sugar levels, for example, might cause the blood vessels in your eyes to expand and eventually bleed.
When blood reaches the retina (the back of your eye), it can cause impaired vision and, in severe cases, blindness.
2. Frequent urination and kidney complications
High blood sugar levels can harm the blood capillaries that transport oxygen and nutrients to your kidneys.
Your kidneys filter waste from your blood, maintain body fluid balance, and create urine to help remove the waste.
Your kidneys have to work extra hard to compensate when they don’t get enough oxygen or nutrients to their cells.
As a result, the waste product that should be filtered builds up in the bloodstream instead. If your blood sugar level continues to rise, your kidneys may eventually quit working.
Kidney failure is the medical term for this condition. Swelling of the feet, frequent urination, puffiness around the eyes, and weakness are all possible symptoms.
3. Loss of sensation
Diabetic neuropathy is a word that describes the nerve disorders that diabetics commonly face, especially if their disease is not well managed.
High blood sugar levels damage the small blood vessels that deliver blood, nutrients, and oxygen to your neurons over time.
Your nerves may be damaged as a result of less blood reaching them. Nerve injury can cause burning feelings, discomfort, numbness (lack of feeling), or tingling in your arms, hands, legs, or feet, as well as vomiting or diarrhoea.
4. Fatigue and lack of energy
Do you feel exhausted most days, or even after a good night’s sleep, after performing easy tasks? An imbalance of glucose and insulin levels could be to blame.
Insulin resistance prevents glucose from entering your cells, resulting in a shortage of fuel and energy.
Your cells can’t function correctly without energy, thus weariness sets in.
High glucose levels, which thicken the blood, can also cause fatigue.
Slower blood circulation is caused by thicker blood (which also requires more effort from your heart, to pump blood throughout your body).
As a result, your cells receive fewer nutrients and oxygen.
