Poor circulation means your body isn’t getting enough blood flow, particularly to your arms, legs, and feet. It’s not a standalone condition but rather a warning sign of vascular disease. If left untreated, it can cause pain, slow wound healing, and increase the risk of limb loss. One of the leading causes of poor circulation is peripheral artery disease (PAD)—a condition where plaque buildup in the arteries restricts blood flow.
Many people with PAD don’t realize they have it until symptoms like leg cramps, cold feet, or skin discoloration appear. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in preventing serious complications. At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, Dr. Vinod Kumar, MD, FACC, and his team provide advanced diagnostic and treatment solutions to improve circulation and protect your limbs.
Poor circulation happens when blood flow to different parts of the body is reduced or obstructed. This can result from plaque buildup in the arteries, leading to conditions like peripheral artery disease. If your circulation is compromised, you may experience symptoms such as:
Healthy circulation is essential for delivering oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. When blood flow is restricted, the legs and feet often suffer first, leading to pain, swelling, and other complications.
Poor circulation occurs when blood flow is restricted, preventing oxygen and essential nutrients from reaching the body's tissues. This condition often affects the legs and feet, causing symptoms like numbness, tingling, pain, and muscle weakness. Underlying health conditions such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) can increase the risk of poor circulation, making early diagnosis and treatment essential.
Circulatory issues extend beyond discomfort; they can lead to serious complications, including slow-healing wounds, an increased risk of infections, and in severe cases, tissue damage. Without proper medical intervention, poor circulation can impact your overall health and quality of life. Seeking expert care ensures that you receive the right treatment to restore healthy blood flow and prevent long-term complications.

Poor circulation is often a sign of peripheral artery disease (PAD), a condition where narrowed arteries restrict blood flow to the limbs. At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, our specialists offer advanced, minimally invasive treatments to restore circulation, relieve symptoms, and reduce serious complications. Don't let poor circulation limit your life—take the first step toward better blood flow today.
An angiogram is an advanced imaging test that uses X-rays and a contrast dye to map your blood vessels, helping detect blockages or abnormalities in circulation.
During angioplasty, a low-profile catheter with an inflatable balloon is used to stretch the affected artery open. This process restores blood flow to the rest of the body. In cases where a clot is blocking the artery, medicine can be administered through the catheter.
Using cutting-edge technology, including orbital and rotational devices, atherectomy removes built-up plaque from arteries. This method is ideal for cases where stents aren’t suitable, ensuring better blood flow.
IVC filter placement is a life-saving procedure where a small device is inserted into the inferior vena cava to catch blood clots before they reach the lungs.
