Hello,
Uncontrolled diabetes results in various complications and getting repeated skin infections is one of them.Consumtion of colas is strictly avoided as it results in high blood sugar levels because colas have plenty of sugars in them.
Treatment involves controlling your diabetes meticulously and taking an antibiotic course.Along with medications make sure that you do regular aetobic exercises for 45 minutes a day and also observe strict dietary control.
Thanks
