Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is when your arteries begin to narrow. It's a common problem that affects 9% of the population, but will only cause symptoms or problems in a quarter of those people. How it develops Arteries carry blood away from the heart and supply essential nutrients and oxygen to every part of your body.
PAD is a medical condition caused by blockages of the arteries that provide blood flow to the arms or legs. You may have also heard of this problem referred to as peripheral vascular disease (PVD) or âbad circulation.â In PAD, the arteries become blocked by cholesterol plaque caused by atherosclerosis.ecause PAD-related blockages in the arteries limit blood flow to the legs, patients with PAD have low blood pressures in the ankles. Your physician will use the ratio of the leg pressure to the arm pressure (ankle blood pressure divided by arm blood pressure) to determine whether you have PAD.
