Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) can cause symptoms such as pain or cramping in the legs while walking, non-healing wounds or sores on the feet or legs and changes in the colour or temperature of the legs. Risk factors for PAD include smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and a family history of the disease.
Early diagnosis and treatment are important to prevent PAD from becoming more serious and leading to complications such as gangrene or amputation. Treatment options for PAD include lifestyle changes, such as exercise and a healthy diet, medications to manage risk factors such as high blood pressure and cholesterol. In more severe cases, angioplasty or bypass surgery may be necessary.
