It is good to have a sweet relationship, but if you are suffering from honey moon disease, you should start treatment immediately. And for this reason, to understand if you are suffering from diabetes or polyuria, you need to pay attention to some symptoms. Dr. trained diabetes specialist from Yale University in the United States. Dina Adimulam said, "What is the cause of diabetes, what are its symptoms - it is very important for every person to know and get regular diabetes check."
In the report published on the health-related website 'Itdis.com', this doctor further said, "It is important to know whether you are suffering from diabetes or not during this epidemic. Because it reduces immunity, creates various problems in the body.
Dr. severe thirst and frequent urination
. Adhimulam says, “'Polydipsia' or increased thirst and 'polyuria' or excessive urination are both well-known predictors of diabetes. The reason behind these two is the kidney, whose function is to purify the absorption of 'glucose'. Diabetic patients have high levels of glucose which acts as a diuretic by increasing urine production. And for this reason, the level of urination increases and thirst also increases."
Increased appetite
It is normal to feel hungry after a long absence or intense physical exertion. However, feeling hungry most of the day for no reason is a symptom of diabetes.
Dr. Adimulam said, "Diabetes is basically a problem with the hormone called 'insulin'. This hormone is necessary for 'glucose' to enter the body's cells and be used as energy. In type 1 diabetes, there is a problem in the body's production of insulin. And in case of type 2 diabetes, insulin is produced in the body but it is not used properly."
“When cells do not get 'glucose' for energy, hunger is always felt. However, no matter how much is eaten, there is no benefit. In medical terms this is called 'Polyphagia'. Because of this, using medicine, glucose is arranged to reach the cells.
Fluctuations in blood sugar levels are the cause of blurred vision . If the blood sugar (Sugar) level is high, water accumulates in the 'lens' of the eye and it swells. Again, the blood vessels of the eye 'retina' or retina can be weak, thin or completely destroyed. Due to these reasons, eyesight becomes weak.
Feeling tired
When blood sugar levels are not controlled, 'hyperglycemia' occurs. This causes nausea, bad breath, shortness of breath, dry mouth and severe fatigue without exertion. Dr. Adimulam said, "Diabetes patients cannot use excess sugar or 'glucose' in the body. And that's why the patient always feels fatigue."
Wounds take an unusually long time to heal
, hands are cut or left for various reasons. It is not a problem for healthy or very sick people, it recovers within a few days. However, it is not applicable for diabetes patients. A small cut is not good but instead becomes an 'infection' and takes a huge shape. Even the loss of limbs is seen in many people.
Dr. Adhimulam says, “There is a direct correlation between blood sugar levels and wound healing. If the 'glycemic control' of the body is not good, there is a risk of a small wound taking a serious shape."
“Prolonged high blood sugar levels lead to vascular disease. As a result, the blood flow through the blood vessels becomes restricted and the healing of the wound is very slow due to this.”
Numbness in the fingers and toes, numbness
in the fingers or toes, or a tingling sensation in the fingers and toes are signs of diabetes. The reason for this is 'diabetic neuropathy', a nerve disease that affects about 50 percent of diabetics, according to the Mayo Clinic.
According to the Mayo Clinic, “pain may accompany the unusual sensation. Recurrent 'proximal neuropathy' or 'diabetic polyradiculopathy'. These diseases attack the legs, thighs, buttocks, abdomen and chest.
Dr. skin black spots
. Adhimulam says, “Black spots on the skin are medically called 'acanthosis nigricans'. In addition to being a predictor of diabetes, this problem also appears as a predictor of cancer in some rare cases. It is usually seen on the back of the neck and under the armpits. The reason for this is 'insulin resistance'.
Because the body cannot use 'insulin', excess 'insulin' causes abnormal growth of certain types of skin cells."
