Patient's question:
Due to work reasons, the veins on my legs have become increasingly prominent and very uncomfortable, to the point where I don't dare to wear dresses. Which hospital is good for treating lower limb arteriosclerosis obliterans?Doctor's answer:
Peripheral artery disease, more common in middle-aged and elderly people, usually has a history of hypertension and diabetes. Clinical symptoms include lower limb pain, numbness, coldness, and slowing after exercise. In severe cases, lower limb cerebral edema may occur, leading to intermittent claudication, and later, ulcers may form or even become purulent. The treatment of peripheral artery disease primarily involves treating the underlying disease, such as arteriosclerosis, stabilizing microcirculation, and may require surgical intervention if necessary.
