As a diabetic, chronic itching (pruritus) can stem from dry skin, fungal infections, diabetic neuropathy, or high blood sugar levels. Because treatments differ, a proper medical evaluation is essential. For temporary relief, apply a fragrance-free moisturizing cream twice daily and keep showers lukewarm. If you suspect a yeast infection, an over-the-counter antifungal cream may help. Most importantly, monitor your blood sugar closely, as poor glycemic control worsens itching. Avoid self-medicating with strong prescription drugs. Please consult your physician or a dermatologist to determine the exact cause and receive the correct targeted treatment.
