What Are the Symptoms of Diabetes
and How to Treat It?
• Fatigue
• Whenever you feel more tired than usual, it could mean that you are diabetic.
Fatigue in a diabetic individual is caused by the imbalance of blood sugar
levels. The blood circulation slows down and cells in the body are unable to
provide oxygen and nutrients that can lead to fatigue.
• Excessive Sleepiness
• If you are feeling sleepy during the day despite having a night’s sleep then it
could indicate that you might be diabetic.
• Slow Healing of Wounds
• Diabetes leads to damage to the blood vessels and disrupts the blood
circulation to injured areas of the body. It hinders the natural healing process,
making wounds heal much slower. The recovery of wounds in a diabetic
individual is very difficult. The risk of infection doubles as the wound takes
more time to recover.
