Claudication Pain :
If an individual's muscles hurt when they are active and they experience relief when resting, it is said that the individual has claudication. Claudication pain usually occurs in the legs. The underlying cause of this pain is usually a blockage in an artery in the legs.
Besides pain, claudication may also involve weakness, tiredness or numbness in the legs or affected area. The diagnosis of claudication begins with a physical exam. Then, the doctor will order a number of tests such as angiography, ankle-brachial index and ultrasound. The treatment depends on the severity of the condition. In mild cases, lifestyle improvements such as a heart-healthy diet, regular walking and quitting tobacco can provide relief. A doctor may also prescribe medications to control the blood pressure, cholesterol or blood sugar. If these conservative treatments do not provide relief, then the doctor may recommend a procedure such as angioplasty.Found 9 Doctors for Claudication Pain Treatment in Ram Nagar, Visakhapatnam
