PAD treatment is necessary to limit the progression of the disease. Once the PAD progresses it may reduce mobility, increases the chances of heart attack, increase chances of limb loss depending on the stage, and reduces the quality of life. 

The patients are given the option to proceed with an arterial procedure and avoid major complications in the future. 

Below are the medical treatment options for PAD (Peripheral Arterial Disease) patients. 

New studies are emerging that suggest eating three or more servings of fruit and vegetables a day can help decreases your chance of developing peripheral artery disease or PAD. So, like your doctor, and mom, always told you, eat your vegetables!
