The duration of a PAD treatment plan varies based on the severity of the condition and the chosen treatment approaches. Some treatments may require multiple sessions over several months, while others can be completed in a single procedure.

Like any medical procedure, PAD treatments carry some risks. These can include bleeding, infection, damage to the artery, or an adverse reaction to medications used during the procedure. Your healthcare provider will discuss the risks and benefits before proceeding.

PAD treatments aim to improve blood flow and manage symptoms. While they can significantly alleviate leg pain and numbness, complete elimination of symptoms may not always be possible, especially in advanced cases. The goal is to enhance your quality of life and mobility.
