Peripheral artery disease

2018-09-13 07:38:36
Basically, I’ve been having pains in my legs. It’s usually just in my left leg around the calf area, but now it’s started in my right leg. It starts to hurt whenever I run, or walk for for a while, or even if I just walk up the stairs. It eases once I’ve sat down, but it still hurts a little. I’ve heard that this could be peripheral artery disease, but is there anything else what could cause this? Im 19 and my diet isn’t exactly 10/10, but I’m just getting worried. I have a doctors appointment

U can get colour Doppler of lower limb to rule out peripheral arterial disease. U should consult ur physician for examination.
