Can Pimple On Tongue, Excessive Thirst And Frequent Urination Be A Sign Of Diabetes?
I've had a white pimple on my tongue for about 4 days now, and it still won't go away. Also, today I've been drinking nonstop and I pee pretty frequently... I've read a lot about this and it says based off my symptoms that I may be diabetic. I can't recall anyone in my fanily that has diabetes. Also, I'm on my period so maybe that's affecting something, and I get really tired lately. Oh and a few weeks ago I had a uti, and it said infections might be another symptoms Please help me.
