A Disease of Legs, A Warning for Life 🦵⚠️❤️
from Dr RR Baliga's "Got Knowledge Doc" Podkast · host MasterMedFacts LLC
🦵❤️ Peripheral Artery Disease is not just a leg problem—it's a life-threatening cardiovascular signal. Up to 60% of patients are asymptomatic, yet PAD doubles to triples the risk of myocardial infarction, stroke, and death. Evidence is clear: exercise therapy, statins, antiplatelet or rivaroxaban-based strategies, blood-pressure control, and GLP-1/SGLT2 therapies save limbs and lives. 🚶♂️💊🫀 When walking hurts—or quietly fades—cardiovascular risk rises. PAD deserves the same urgency as coronary disease. #PeripheralArteryDisease #PreventiveCardiology #Claudication #ExerciseMedicine #Atherosclerosis #CardioVascularRisk
