The German Diabetes Association said that some skin problems may foreshadow diabetes.

Severe and stubborn fungus infections, for example, under the armpit or in the groin area (the area between the abdomen and thigh on both sides of the body) indicate diabetes.

Therefore, the association stressed the need to consult a doctor immediately after observing these symptoms and work to control blood sugar, where the stains will be removed and the infection of the fungus will heal.
