Limb ischemia refers to a condition where there is a reduced blood flow to the limbs, usually the legs, leading to insufficient oxygen and nutrients reaching the tissues. This can result in pain, tissue damage, and, if untreated, can lead to severe complications.
Acute Limb Ischemia is a sudden decrease in blood flow to a limb, often caused by a blood clot or an injury. It requires immediate medical attention to restore circulation and prevent permanent damage.
Chronic Limb Ischemia is a long-term condition characterized by a gradual reduction in blood flow, often due to the buildup of fatty deposits (atherosclerosis) in the arteries. It leads to persistent pain, especially during physical activity, and can worsen over time.
