Peripheral artery disease, or PAD, affects 8 million Americansâand many donât know they have it. But PAD is a very serious condition that has also been linked to heart attack and stroke if itâs not treated. If you have PAD, blood flow to the arms, legs, kidneys and other vital organs can be limited. Without enough oxygen-rich blood, nerves and tissues in these areas can be injured. Thatâs why, if you have PAD in your legs, it can make walking very difficult; you might have painful cramping or numbness.
PAD can cause discomfort in your legs and feet, and limit your walking and activities. Severe PAD can progress to loss of limb. Your doctor can check for signs of the disease with a simple test of pulses in your feet. When cholesterol buildup blocks the arteries to your heart, we call this condition coronary artery disease (CAD). In reality, PAD and CAD are associated with a single disease, atherosclerosis, which is a buildup of cholesterol in the arteries throughout the body.
