For many years now, most people have ignorantly believed that diabetes only occurs in adults. But recent research has revealed that this deadly disease also occurs in children and is even becoming more common among young people.
It is hard to detect symptoms of diabetes as this disease progresses very slowly. It is dangerous to ignore signs of high blood sugar levels in children as it could lead to fatality or even death.
In this article on EKO HOT BLOG we would be looking at some signs of diabetes in children that every parent must out for.
1. Your child seems tired and sleepy every time
Excessive fatigue is one of the signs that show that your child’s blood sugar is higher than normal which makes the child lack energy
2. Excessive Thirst
Another warning sign of diabetes in children is excessive thirst. You should take your child to the hospital for a proper diagnosis if he or she keeps asking for water nonstop.
3. Unusual Frequent Urination
Due to high amounts of sugar in the child’s bloodstream, he or she will be visiting the restroom frequently. The extra sugar followed by water goes into the urine hence the child has to relieve himself or herself more frequently.
4. Excessive Hunger
The child also feels very hungry every time. Due to the inability of the body to use glucose properly, the child will need to eat more to fuel the body. Increased hunger is a warning sign of diabetes in children.
