Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) develops in the legs when arteries are clogged due to cholesterol build up. This causes decreased blood flow to the legs, which can result in leg pain, and eventually gangrene and amputation.

PAD is a common condition that causes pain in the legs when walking. It often goes undiagnosed. However, if left untreated, it can eventually cause painful immobility. Affecting some 204 million people worldwide and 8.5 million Americans, PAD is strongly associated with coronary artery disease, diabetes, age and smoking. More information online at www.slucare.edu
