Five early signs of high blood sugar you should not ignore

Diabetes often develops quietly. These everyday symptoms are worth a simple blood test.

BBalaji Clinic team 4 min read

Many people live with high blood sugar for years before it is diagnosed. Early detection makes control much easier.

Watch for these signs

  • Feeling thirsty all the time
  • Passing urine often, especially at night
  • Tiredness that rest does not fix
  • Cuts or wounds that heal slowly
  • Frequent gum infections or skin infections

Who should get tested?

Anyone over 30 with a family history of diabetes, people who are overweight, and women who had high sugar during pregnancy should get checked regularly.

A fasting sugar test and HbA1c give a clear picture. Samples can be collected at our clinic.
