Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) Treatment at VIVA Richmond

Highest Quality Care Located in Richmond’s West End
Schedule Today
 

Peripheral Arterial Disease occurs when arteries become narrowed or clogged due to atherosclerosis, a buildup of cholesterol or fatty deposits in the arteries. This causes the blood flow to the affected leg or arm to be reduced especially during activity or exercise.

Symptoms:

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) can often be mistaken as something else. Cramping, fatigue, and pain in lower extremities when walking and climbing can signal PAD. Other symptoms such as persistent leg pain, slow-healing wounds on the feet, weak pulse in legs, unhealthy nail and hair growth, and even E.D. in men can present themselves.

Signs of general pain in the legs should not be disregarded. Arthritis, sciatica, and varicose veins are all commonly misdiagnosed for PAD. VIVA offers full vascular exams to diagnose and treat such conditions. Unlike other practices, we offer minimally invasive procedures, offering less pain and a faster return to normal activities. Take the steps to a healthier life today and contact us.

See a full list of common symptoms of PAD:

  • Painful cramping in one or both hips, thighs, or calf muscles after activities like walking or climbing stairs
  • Weak pulse in legs or feet
  • Numbness in the legs
  • Weakness in the legs
  • Wounds on legs or feet that won’t heal
  • Discoloration in the legs
  • Slow or poor hair and nail growth in lower extremities
  • Shiny skin on the lower legs
  • Erectile dysfunction in men
  • Persistent pain in legs even when resting
