Overview

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects 4-12% of people aged 55-70 and 20% of those over 70. The most common symptom is intermittent claudication (IC), pain in the legs or buttocks during exercise that goes away with rest. People with IC have a 3-6 times higher risk of death from heart disease. Lifestyle changes like quitting smoking and exercise programs can improve symptoms, walking distance, and quality of life. Blood thinners help prevent blood clots in people with IC but don't increase how far they can walk.
