Atherosclerotic lesion of the vessels of the lower extremities is a disease manifested in the fact that atherosclerotic plaques appear in the lumen of the vessel, which can block it or prevent the passage of blood through the vessel. Simply put, there is a blockage of blood vessels, leading to impaired blood circulation in the tissues.
The manifestations of atherosclerotic vascular lesions can be as follows:
lameness while walking;
pain in the legs, which manifests itself not only when walking, but also at rest;
changed skin color on the legs;
feeling of coldness in the legs;
numbness of the lower extremities, convulsions.
If left untreated, it can lead to amputation of the leg.
One of the achievements of modern medicine is stenting. The essence of this method is that a small spring, or stent, is inserted through the puncture of the wall of the affected vessel. It serves as a kind of framework that prevents further narrowing of the vessel.
During this completely painless procedure, the patient is awake. After stenting, a person does not need to stay in the intensive care unit and after a few days can move independently without experiencing pain or discomfort.
If you observe symptoms of atherosclerosis of the vessels of the lower extremities, do not postpone a visit to the vascular surgeon of the ORC "Marusich". An examination by an experienced specialist and a complete diagnosis will help establish the correct diagnosis and prescribe the necessary treatment on time.
