Hi. I'm new to the forum and newly diagnosed a few months ago with type 2 diabetes.
Recently I read that being diabetic could make you susceptible to boils, as I have 5 or 6 come up under my arms and some in the groin and leg area, is this normal or should I have them checked out by the doctor or maybe buy an over the counter cream. Any advice would be welcome as they are quite painful.
Thanks in advance, Andy
