Peripheral artery disease (PAD) can be a painful and risky ordeal. It results from plaque in the arteries blocking healthy blood flow to your head, organs, and limbs. Coming back from it is no easy task, and how you approach recovery can have a significant influence on your risk of death by heart disease or other illness.
