Patient's question:
Recently, I've been feeling unwell. Recently, I've been feeling pale, not wanting to eat dinner, weak all over, and accompanied by the recurrence of nausea. Hello, what are the symptoms of childhood diabetes?Doctor's answer:
The early symptoms of childhood diabetes mainly include polyuria, polydipsia, and polyphagia, as well as sometimes drinking water before going to bed at night. The early symptoms of childhood diabetes mainly include type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes, with type 1 being the most common. The clinical manifestations of type 1 diabetes are typically polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, and weight loss. In very few children, it may manifest as diabetic ketoacidosis, characterized by abdominal pain and nausea, with the exhaled breath having a fruity odor. Type 2 diabetes often affects obese children who feel fatigued. Obese individuals may experience weight loss, loss of appetite, but without other obvious symptoms. If the early symptoms of childhood diabetes reoccur in adults, they are often accompanied by polyphagia, polydipsia, and polyuria. The long-term complications are microvascular inflammation-induced damage to the eyes, heart, kidneys, and nervous system.
