1. Patches on your skin
This symptom is known as Necrobiosis Lipoidica and manifests as the appearance of skin irritations resembling pimples, which gradually transform into reddish, yellowish, and even brownish patches on the skin.
To determine if it is a symptom of diabetes, we provide you with more details, but it is best to consult a doctor as soon as possible.
In the affected area, blood vessels may also be visible. They become apparent because the skin thins in that area, with a porcelain-like texture. The veins may slightly inflame and cause itching and discomfort in the affected part.
Another characteristic of these skin patches is that they can be active for a period, then become inactive, and later reappear. Therefore, you shouldn’t assume it goes away on its own; the doctor needs to assess your skin’s condition at that particular time.
