Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) often goes unnoticed in early stages. A common sign is leg pain while walking that eases with rest—this indicates reduced blood flow due to blocked arteries. If left untreated, the pain may persist even during rest or sleep. Non-healing foot wounds are another warning sign. PAD is more common in people with diabetes, high blood pressure, cholesterol issues, heart disease, or smoking habits. Early diagnosis can prevent complications. If you notice such symptoms, consult your doctor to assess your circulation and begin appropriate treatment.
