10 Unexpected Signs Your Blood Sugar is Consistently Too High
High blood sugar, or hyperglycemia, can affect your body in various ways, often presenting symptoms that are easy to overlook. Here are 10 unusual signs that your blood sugar may be constantly too high:
Overweight or Unexpected Weight Loss: Being overweight is a risk factor for high blood sugar, but unexpected weight loss, even without a change in diet or exercise, can also be a warning sign.
Irritability or Depression: High blood sugar levels can impact your mood, leading to feelings of irritability or depression.
Tingling and Numbness in Hands or Feet: Known as neuropathy, this symptom occurs because high blood sugar can damage the nerves.
Slow-Healing Sores: Elevated blood sugar can impair blood circulation and slow down the healing process of wounds and sores.
Yeast or Urinary Tract Infections: High blood sugar levels provide an environment for infections to thrive, particularly yeast and urinary tract infections.
Blurry Vision: Excess glucose can cause the lenses of your eyes to swell, resulting in blurred vision.
Swollen or Bleeding Gums: High blood sugar can weaken your ability to fight off germs, leading to gum infections, swelling, and bleeding.
Blisters, Dry Skin, or Other Skin Changes: Skin problems such as blisters, dry skin, and other changes can be linked to high blood sugar levels.
Hearing Loss: High blood sugar can damage the nerves and blood vessels in your ears, leading to hearing loss.
Fruity-Smelling Breath: When your body can’t use glucose for energy, it begins to break down fat, producing ketones that can cause your breath to smell fruity.
If you notice any of these signs, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional. Managing blood sugar levels through a balanced diet, regular exercise, and appropriate medical care is crucial for preventing complications and maintaining overall health.
