However, early diagnosis and treatment of diabetes are crucial, so it’s important to know which early signs to look out for. In this article, we will explore nine of these early signs of diabetes.

Skin Tags

Skin tags are harmless skin growths that can form on any part of your body. Some are firmly attached to the skin, whereas others hang from a tiny stalk. These growths are medically known as acrochordons.

These skin tags are found all over the body, but most often on the underarms, groin, neck, and eyelashes.
