Peripheral Artery Disease is a condition that affects approximately 9 million Americans and is defined as a narrowing of the peripheral arteries due to a build-up of plaque known as Atherosclerosis. This narrowing impedes blood flow to the limbs causing leg pain while exercising and can limit the body’s ability to heal. In extreme cases PAD can lead to gangrenous tissue and the amputation of limbs.
