Often, you will not know you have PAD because the symptoms are subtle and few. If symptoms are present, they likely include fatigue or pain in the feet and legs from walking, foot or toe pain that often disturbs sleep, and wounds or ulcers of the feet that are slow to heal. Common symptoms of PAD are
• Discomfort, cramping or heaviness in the toes, feet or legs
• Poorly healing or non-healing wounds on the toes, feet or legs
• Walking impairment
• Pain at rest that is localized to the lower leg or foot
• Abdominal pain that is provoked by eating
• Familial history of a first-degree relative with an abdominal or aortic aneurysm
