Al-Marsad Newspaper: A study found that skin complications are often the first visible sign of diabetes.

Pharmacist Bruce Green said the skin of people with diabetes can be similar to skin that has aged prematurely. Explaining that skin problems are more likely among diabetics due to poor circulation and decreased nerve sensitivity. According to “The Sun”.

Bruce said there are six major warning signs to be aware of.

Signs to watch out for on the skin are:

Yellow or brown spots or bumps

Dark, velvety areas often around the neck and armpits

Thick patches of skin on the fingers and toes

Sudden appearance of blisters

Cavities on the skin are barely noticeable

– The appearance of very dry and itchy skin spots, especially on the arms

However, these are not the only symptoms to watch out for, as the NHS recommends that you see your doctor if you feel very thirsty or urinate more frequently than usual, especially at night.

Feeling very tired, losing weight, frequent bouts of thrush and blurred vision are also warning signs of diabetes.
