5-Question Self-Assessment

1. Do you experience leg pain, cramping, heaviness, or fatigue when walking—even short distances—that improves when you rest?

(This is known as claudication, a classic symptom of PAD.)

2. Do you have numbness, burning, rest pain in your feet/toes at night, or non-healing wounds on your legs or feet?

(These may indicate advanced PAD or Critical Limb Ischemia (CLI).)

3. Do you have risk factors such as **diabetes, smoking** (current or past), **high blood pressure, high cholesterol, age over 60**, or a family history of PAD?

4. Have you noticed a significant decrease in your walking speed, endurance, or ability to keep up with normal activities?

5. Have you been diagnosed with poor circulation, or has a healthcare provider noted diminished pulses, cold feet, or skin discoloration?
