Foot Numbness, Pain, Swelling? Get Blood Circulation Checked Immediately!

• Persistent foot numbness, pain, or swelling can signal serious blood circulation problems, often ignored as minor discomfort.
• Arterial issues (narrowed/blocked arteries) cause pain after walking (intermittent claudication) and numbness due to insufficient oxygen.
• Venous problems (weak/damaged veins) lead to swelling as blood accumulates, often worsening in the evening.
• Untreated arterial issues can cause tissue damage, infections, and limb loss; venous issues can lead to DVT and potentially fatal pulmonary embolism.
• Seek immediate medical attention if these symptoms are frequent or combined, as timely diagnosis and treatment can prevent severe health complications and save lives.
