Understanding Peripheral Arterial Disease–related Foot Complications
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) reduces blood supply to the diabetic foot, leading to poor healing, pain, ulcers, and tissue loss.
Introduction
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) reduces blood supply to the diabetic foot, leading to poor healing, pain, ulcers, and tissue loss.
Common Symptoms
- Cold feet and weak pulses
- Pain while walking or at rest
- Non-healing wounds or ulcers
- Skin discoloration or blackening
- Delayed healing after injury
Treatment Options
- Vascular Doppler evaluation
- Blood-thinning and cholesterol medications
- Angioplasty or bypass surgery
- Wound care and infection control
- Lifestyle modification and smoking cessation
Recovery & Outlook
Restoration of blood flow greatly improves healing and reduces amputation risk.
