Lower extremity arterial disease occurs when the arteries supplying blood to the legs become narrowed or blocked, reducing blood flow and causing symptoms such as pain, numbness, and delayed wound healing. Delayed diagnosis can lead to serious complications, so please be sure to consult a medical specialist if you experience any unusual symptoms in your legs.2026-06-26

Peripheral vascular disease is a condition in which the blood vessels in the legs, far from the heart, become narrowed or blocked by blood clots (thrombi), and it can be a medical emergency. In serious cases, tissue in the leg can die and amputation may be necessary, so if your leg is severely swollen and painful, please consult a cardiology or vascular specialist immediately.2026-06-26
