It is particularly important to dry all areas where water tends to hide. These places include the fingers, under the arms and between the legs.
Another thing to do to keep the skin moist is to moisturize regularly. Simper use a cream or lotion after having a bath or shower, and reapply at least twice a day. Drink plenty of water helps keep the body hydrated, underwear and cotton helps moisture to penetrate, rather than maintain against the body.

So, while diabetes does not affect the skin, skin conditions can be prevented and treated if necessary.
