Type 2 diabetes is a long-term condition in which the body does not use insulin properly, leading to high blood sugar levels. Common symptoms of type 2 diabetes include feeling very thirsty, needing to pass urine more often than usual, especially at night, and feeling tired most of the time. Some people may notice unexplained weight loss even when eating normally. Blurred vision may occur due to changing blood sugar levels. Cuts and wounds may heal slowly, and there may be repeated infections, such as skin, gum, or urinary infections. Some individuals may also feel increased hunger. If these symptoms are present, it is important to seek medical advice early to prevent complications and support better long-term health.
