Diabetes > Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)
The following information is about Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD).
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) Defined
Disease in the large blood vessels of the arms, legs, and feet. People who have had diabetes for a long time may get this because major blood vessels in their arms, legs, and feet are blocked and these limbs do not receive enough blood. The signs of PVD are aching pains in the arms, legs, and feet (especially when walking) and foot sores that heal slowly. Although people with diabetes cannot always avoid PVD, doctors say they have a better chance of avoiding it if they take good care of their feet, do not smoke, and keep both their blood pressure and diabetes under good control.See also: Macrovascular disease.
This definition is in context to Diabetes. See more contextual defintions for Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD).
