Non-Healing Sores and Cuts that Don’t Heal
A non-healing sore or cut is a sign of a medical condition. Individuals with prediabetes may have non-healing sores and cuts that don’t heal quickly. When wounds don’t heal, they could also be due to infection, edema [5], inadequate nutrition, and repetitive trauma to the wound.
Non-healing sores may also be due to protein malnutrition. For this reason, it’s essential to consult the doctor for the best method of treatment when this condition is observed.
Conclusion
Prediabetes is a condition that occurs in both children and adults. It should be treated quickly due to the possible complications including heart disease, nerve damage, kidney damage, and eye damage. Exercising more is also essential for individuals with prediabetes.
