There's no particular timeline that stands true for all patients, it depends on many factors such as age of diabetes onset, control of blood sugars, lifestyle and regular check ups.
Exact cause is unknown but most appreciated hypothesis is either low insulin or insulin resistance due to genetic +/- environmental factors.
No, whole wheat and grains are good for Diabetics.
Leading a better lifestyle in the form of avoiding excessive sugar/ fats, high fibre foods, breaking sedentary life and regular physical activity helps in lowering the blood sugar levels.
Raised blood sugar can affect the blood vessels cauing in slow movement of nutrients needed for wound to heal, diabetes also affects nerves which reduce one's sensitivity to pain from wound leading to repetitive traumas and lastly, diabetes also makes immune system less effective in fighting the infection.
