●Persistently high blood sugar can irritate nerve endings in the skin, causing itchiness. ●Persistent hyperglycemia, which makes the skin and mucosa dehydrated or malnourished, unable to provide blood and oxygen to the mucosa, reducing the secretion of sweat glands and sebaceous glands, and causing itching due to dry skin.
●Low resistance, where the skin doesn't fight infections as well and is vulnerable to bacterial and fungal infections.
