Peripheral Artery Disease?

There's no specific treatment, but you'll probably be advised to make lifestyle changes if necessary (usual stuff - lose weight, keep walking, don't smoke). You'll possibly also have a cholesterol test and if you have high cholesterol, you'll be prescribed statins. If it gets really bad, a stent can be inserted to increase the blood flow.

You'll probably have a Doppler test. They put blood pressure cuffs on your arms and ankles and compare the blood pressure in your arms with your legs. It's totally painless and takes a few minutes.
