HealthDr Rajiv Parakh Explains Peripheral Vascular Disease Symptoms and Risks
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a circulatory disorder that restricts blood flow to limbs, mainly legs, due to narrowed or blocked vessels. Unlike heart disease, PVD affects multiple arterial systems including the heart, brain, kidneys, and limbs, making it complex and damaging. It progresses slowly with symptoms like leg pain and fatigue often mistaken for aging or orthopedic issues, delaying diagnosis until severe complications arise, says Dr Rajiv Parakh of Medanta.
