Book Peripheral Artery Disease Treatment from Top Doctors in Trinidad/Tobago

For individuals with PAD, sleeping with your legs slightly elevated can improve blood circulation and reduce discomfort. However, in some cases, sleeping with legs lowered can alleviate pain caused by poor blood flow. Consult a PAD specialist in Port of Spain, San Fernando, or Scarborough through Medicas for personalised advice.

Peripheral Artery Disease is commonly diagnosed through:

A physical examination to check for weak pulses in the legs Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI), which compares blood pressure in your ankle and arm
Imaging tests like ultrasound or angiography
Blood tests to assess cholesterol and glucose levels
A consultation with a PAD specialist in Trinidad & Tobago can help you understand the diagnostic steps best suited for your symptoms.

While you cannot confirm PAD at home, you can look for warning signs like:

Pain or cramping in the legs while walking
Numbness or weakness in the legs
Coldness in the lower leg or foot
Slow-healing sores on toes or feet
If you suspect PAD, schedule an online consultation with a doctor in Trinidad & Tobago through Medicas for a professional evaluation.

Walking cannot cure PAD, but it is one of the most effective treatments for managing symptoms. Supervised exercise therapy can help improve circulation, reduce pain, and enhance mobility. Connect with a PAD specialist through Medicas in Trinidad & Tobago for a tailored exercise plan.

The most severe stage of PAD is called critical limb ischemia (CLI), which can lead to chronic pain, non-healing wounds, and even amputation if untreated. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent complications. Consult a specialist in Trinidad & Tobago to manage PAD effectively.

PAD is a circulatory problem caused by narrowed arteries, often due to atherosclerosis. While it primarily affects the legs, it is linked to cardiac issues as the underlying conditions—like poor circulation and plaque build-up—can also increase the risk of heart attack and stroke.

Hypertension (high blood pressure) is a major risk factor for PAD but not its sole cause. Other contributing factors include smoking, high cholesterol, diabetes, and a sedentary lifestyle. A PAD specialist in Trinidad & Tobago can evaluate your risk factors and provide guidance on managing them.
