If this is an emergency, call 911
Call 911 right away for chest pain or pressure with shortness of breath, sweating, or nausea; for sudden weakness or trouble speaking; or for a leg that suddenly turns cold, pale, and very painful. Do not drive yourself. This website does not provide emergency care.
Legs and circulation
Leg arteries carry blood down to your feet. When they narrow, the legs hurt, feel cold, or heal slowly.
Leg pain when you walk
Cramping in the calf, thigh, or buttock that starts after a certain distance and eases when you stop. Doctors call it claudication.
A leg or foot wound that will not heal
A sore on the foot, ankle, or shin that is still open after several weeks.
Poor circulation in the legs (PAD)
Peripheral artery disease: narrowed leg arteries. The cause behind most walking pain and many slow-healing wounds.
Veins
Leg veins carry blood back up to the heart. When their valves leak, blood pools in the legs.
Swollen legs or ankles
Puffiness that gets worse through the day, or skin that keeps a dent when you press it.
Varicose veins
Bulging, rope-like veins, often with aching or heaviness after standing.
Leaky leg veins (chronic venous insufficiency)
The vein problem behind most leg swelling, varicose veins, and skin changes near the ankle.
Blood clot in the leg (DVT)
Sudden swelling, pain, or warmth in one leg. This needs to be checked the same day.
Heart
Problems with the heart’s arteries, rhythm, valves, or pumping strength.
Chest pain or pressure
Tightness, pressure, or heaviness in the chest, especially when you are active.
Blocked heart arteries
Coronary artery disease: narrowing of the arteries that feed the heart muscle.
Irregular heartbeat (AFib)
A fluttering, pounding, or uneven heartbeat. Atrial fibrillation raises the risk of stroke.
A weak heart (heart failure)
Shortness of breath, swollen ankles, and tiredness because the heart is not pumping or filling well.
High blood pressure
Usually no symptoms at all, which is why it does damage quietly over years.
High cholesterol
What the numbers on your lab report mean for your heart, and what can be done.
Heart valve problems
A valve that is too tight or that leaks, often first noticed as a murmur or shortness of breath.
Knee
A treatment through the blood vessels for arthritis pain in the knee.
