🩸 Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) Awareness🩸
Did you know that reduced blood flow to your limbs can be a warning sign for your heart? Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) occurs when plaque builds up in the arteries carrying blood to your head, organs, and limbs.
Common signs to 👀watch out for:
🦵Leg pain, cramping, or tiredness when walking (claudication)
🧊Numbness, coldness, or weakness in your lower legs or feet
🦶Slow-healing sores or ulcers on your toes and feet
Early detection saves lives. If you experience persistent leg discomfort, talk to your healthcare provider to protect your mobility and cardiovascular health!
