8 Commonly Missed Symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes

Tingling Skin

Any condition that affects a person’s hydration or blood sugar levels may also affect the skin. Tingling skin may occur in diabetic patients due to dehydration, which results from frequent urination. Dry, itchy skin is a common symptom of dehydration. In some cases, tingling skin may occur in the form of dry patches on elbows, hands, and knees. These spots usually do not go away on their own; therefore, a doctor should be consulted if the problem continues.
