Peripheral Vascular Disease Treatment in Indore

Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a circulatory condition that affects blood vessels outside of the heart and brain, primarily in the legs and feet. It is often caused by the narrowing or blockage of arteries due to a buildup of plaque, leading to reduced blood flow to the extremities.

Causes & Symptoms

Peripheral vascular disease can develop due to various factors, including:

• Atherosclerosis: The buildup of fatty deposits (plaque) in the walls of arteries, restricting blood flow.
• Diabetes: High blood sugar levels can damage blood vessels and contribute to the development of PVD.
• Smoking: Tobacco use can accelerate the progression of atherosclerosis and increase the risk of PVD.
• Hypertension: High blood pressure can damage blood vessels and contribute to arterial narrowing.

Symptoms of peripheral vascular disease may include:

• Pain or cramping in the legs during physical activity (intermittent claudication).
• Coldness or numbness in the legs or feet.
• Weakness or fatigue in the legs.
• Slow-healing wounds or ulcers on the legs or feet.
• Changes in skin color or texture, such as shiny or discolored skin.

Our Approach

At our practice, we specialize in the diagnosis and management of peripheral vascular disease to improve blood flow and reduce symptoms. Our approach may include:

• Comprehensive Evaluation: Thorough assessment of symptoms, medical history, and vascular imaging studies to diagnose PVD and assess its severity.
• Lifestyle Modifications: Education and guidance on lifestyle changes, such as smoking cessation, regular exercise, healthy diet, and blood sugar control, to reduce risk factors and improve vascular health.
• Medication Management: Prescription medications to manage symptoms, lower blood pressure, control cholesterol levels, and prevent blood clots.
• Minimally Invasive Procedures: Advanced interventions such as angioplasty, stenting, or atherectomy to open blocked arteries and restore blood flow in the legs.
• Vascular Surgery: Surgical procedures such as bypass grafting to reroute blood flow around blocked arteries and improve circulation in the legs.
