At Coastal Vascular Center, we are committed to not just treating but educating our patients and community during National Peripheral Arterial Disease Awareness Month. Peripheral arterial disease (PAD), also known simply as arterial disease, is a formidable condition affecting millions,...
Arterial disease, often called Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD), involves problems with the blood vessels located outside the heart and brain. These vessels, which include both arteries and veins, are crucial for transporting blood throughout the body. One of the most common types...
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD), also known widely as Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD), is a common yet frequently progressive circulation disorder primarily affecting those over 50 or those with atherosclerosis. This buildup of plaque in the arteries can restrict blood flow severely, leading to...
Compression therapy is a simple yet profoundly effective treatment for various vascular conditions. Despite its widespread application in the medical field, many patients need to be made aware of how it works, its benefits, and who can gain the most from it. Our goal is to educate about...
