21 Signs Showing That Your Blood Sugar Is Very High

7. Dry mouth.

The medical term for ‘dry mouth’ is xerostomia. It is a common sign of high blood sugar levels and diabetes. It is advisable to seek medical advice if you have a dry mouth and suspect that you may have diabetes. Dry mouth is caused by a shortage of saliva in the mouth. The symptomatic characteristics of dry mouth are cracked or chapped lips, rough or dry tongue, mouth sores, and gum or tooth cavity infections. A dry mouth makes talking, chewing, and swallowing difficult because saliva is needed for these functions.
