Is it taking weeks for a small wound to heal? So get this test done today:

News India Live, Digital Desk: High Blood Sugar Symptoms: In today’s times, diabetes or sugar disease is no less than an epidemic. Earlier this disease used to affect the elderly, but today it is affecting the youth of 30-35 years of age also. The scariest thing is that sugar doesn’t happen overnight. Our body gives us many ‘warning signals’ before falling ill.

The problem is that we Indians tend to ignore these minor problems thinking, “Oh, the weather might be changing” or “I might be tired.” But this mistake proves costly. Let us understand in very simple language what signals the body gives if the blood sugar level is increasing.

1. Excessive Thirst
Are you also feeling very thirsty these days? Drink water and after some time your throat starts getting dry? If this is happening, be careful. When sugar increases in the blood, the body tries to remove it through water, due to which the body becomes dehydrated and thirst increases.

2. Frequent urination
If you have to get up frequently to urinate, especially at night, then this is a major symptom of increased sugar. The kidneys have to work harder to clean the blood, and you have to run to the washroom more often to remove excess sugar.

3. Blurry eyes
If you suddenly stop seeing clearly or your eyesight starts becoming weak, it is not necessary that the number of glasses has increased. High blood sugar has a bad effect on the nerves and lenses of the eyes. If left untreated, it can also cause permanent blindness.

4. An injury is not healing at all.
Suppose you get a small cut while cutting vegetables, or get a scratch while shaving. If this small wound is not healing for weeks, then it is a big alarm bell. In diabetes, the body’s ability to repair itself decreases.

5. Tiredness and hunger without hard work
Do you feel hungry again immediately after eating food? Or do you not feel alive in your body even after getting complete sleep? When sugar keeps circulating in the blood instead of reaching the cells, the body does not get energy and the person remains tired all the time.

When to see a doctor?
If you see any two of these symptoms together, do not take the risk. Go to a good pathology lab tomorrow and get your sugar test (HBA1C or Fasting) done. Remember, if sugar is caught early, it can be controlled without medicines by just changing the diet (Diet Control).

Health is precious, don’t ignore it
