Disease/Condition Glossary
Peripheral vascular disease: It is a blood circulation disorder that causes the blood vessels outside the brain and heart to narrow and block. The narrowed blood vessels cause reduced blood flow. It could occur due to the deposition of fat and calcium on the walls of the arteries. Symptoms include pain in the leg, especially while walking. Risk factors of peripheral vascular disease include smoking, ageing, and diabetes.
Intermittent claudication: Intermittent claudication, also known as vascular claudication, is a symptom in which muscle pain or mild exertion occurs during exercise. The pain is generally felt in the calf muscle. Symptoms include cramp, ache, fatigue, and numbness.
Stasis dermatitis: It is a condition in which skin inflammation occurs in the lower legs caused by fluid build-up due to circulation issues, varicose veins or heart disease. Symptoms include itching, thickened skin, ulcers, and skin discolouration of the ankles or shins.
Raynaud’s disease: In this condition, the smaller arteries that supply blood to the skin become narrow in response to cold. This causes a limited blood supply to the affected area leading to numbness. The fingers, toes, tip of the nose, and ears commonly become cool and numb in response to cold temperature.
Cerebral vascular disease: It is a condition that affects the blood vessels and blood supply to the brain. This could lead to a stroke. Symptoms include numbness/paralysis of the face, arm, leg and trouble walking, understanding, and speaking.
