As excess glucose in the blood affects the nervous system and blood vessels, they get damaged. This results in the inability to feel. A burning sensation is felt in arms, legs, hands and feet. This is due to motor nerve fiber loss.

8. Headaches

Regular headaches are one of the deadly signs of diabetes. They are deadly because they are often neglected. Regular headaches should be checked upon as a sign of diabetes.

9. Skin and yeast infections

As the immune system of a person deteriorates, there are more chances of skin infections. Wounds take time to heal for a diabetic and this may result in infections.
