Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a condition that affects the blood vessels outside the heart and brain. It occurs when these vessels become narrowed or blocked, often due to a buildup of fatty deposits, which can reduce blood flow to the limbs. This can lead to symptoms such as leg pain, cramping, and weakness, especially during physical activities. PVD is commonly associated with other health issues like atherosclerosis, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Early diagnosis and management are crucial to prevent complications, which may include severe pain, infections, or even limb loss. Treatment options often include lifestyle changes, medications, and sometimes surgical procedures.
