2Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) develops when
your arteries become clogged with plaque-fatty
deposits that limit blood flow to your legs.
According to the US Department of Health and
Human Services, one in every 20 Americans over
the age of 50 has PAD., a condition that raises
the risk for heart attack and stroke.
3People who do experience symptoms, such as pain
or cramping in the legs, often do not report
them, believing it is a natural part of aging.
But besides leg pain and cramping there are many
other things people suffering with PAD need to be
aware of.
4According to Cardio Smart PAD Increases the risk
of heart attack as patients suffering with this
condition have a much higher risk of having
blockage in other arteries throughout the body
