Warning Signs of Diabetes
November 14 is World Diabetes Day, a reminder to raise awareness about this prevalent yet often overlooked condition. Diabetes can develop with signs that may be easy to dismiss or misinterpret. Knowing what to look for can make a big difference in early detection and treatment. The earlier the condition is diagnosed, the sooner treatment can begin. Here are the most common symptoms to watch for.
