Patient: Mr. Rajesh S., Age 63, Ahmedabad
Condition: Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
Symptoms: Severe leg pain while walking, numbness, and fatigue in the calves
Mr. Rajesh visited Dr. Malay Patel after struggling with pain in his legs for several months. Initially assuming it was due to age, he later discovered he had Peripheral Arterial Disease — a condition where narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the limbs. Dr. Patel performed a thorough vascular evaluation and immediately recommended a non-invasive treatment plan involving lifestyle modifications, medication, and improved circulation strategies.
Result: Within 6 weeks, Mr. Rajesh reported significant improvement in walking distance and pain reduction, preventing further complications like ulcers or gangrene.
