Your Guide to PAD Risk Assessment

PAD or Peripheral Artery Disease occurs when the blood vessels going to your extremities are blocked or extremely narrow. As a result, you may experience a shift in your quality of life. Knowing if you might suffer from this condition is the first step for both treatment and recovery.

 

Other factors that contribute to PAD include high blood pressure, diabetes, age, ethnicity, high cholesterol, and smoking.

 

You can get a good idea of your condition if you experience any of these symptoms. Reach out to us so that we can run tests and offer a proper diagnosis. Common symptoms of PAD include:

 

  • Cramping or pain in your legs even after light activity
  • Numb tingling in the legs or general weakness in your extremities
  • One foot is hot and the other is cold or vice versa
  • Wounds or sores on your legs or feet that never seem to heal
  • Toenail and leg hair growth slows for no discernable reason
  • Discoloration or a shine on the skin of your legs and feet
  • Difficulty finding a pulse in your feet or legs
  • Issues with intimacy or erectile dysfunction
