Peripheral Vascular Disease & Diabetic Foot Revascularization: Advanced Care for Better Circulation
Restoring blood flow, preventing complications, and improving quality of life.
Our state-of-the-art minimally invasive treatments for Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) and Diabetic Foot Revascularization focus on restoring blood flow, preventing serious complications, and enhancing mobility, helping patients live healthier, more active lives.
What is Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)?
Peripheral Vascular Disease is a circulatory condition where narrowed blood vessels reduce blood flow to the limbs. Commonly affecting the legs, PVD can cause pain, cramping, and mobility issues. Left untreated, it increases the risk of ulcers, infections, and even limb loss.
What is Diabetic Foot Revascularization?
Diabetic foot revascularization is a specialized procedure designed to restore blood flow to the feet in diabetic patients suffering from poor circulation. This intervention prevents non-healing ulcers, infections, and the need for amputation by addressing the root cause—insufficient blood supply.
Common Symptoms of PVD
- Leg pain or cramping during walking (claudication).
- Numbness or weakness in the legs.
- Coldness in the lower leg or foot.
- Non-healing wounds or ulcers on the feet or toes.
- Discoloration or shiny skin on the legs.
Risk Factors for PVD and Diabetic Foot Complications
- Diabetes: High blood sugar damages blood vessels and nerves.
- Smoking: Constricts blood vessels, worsening circulation.
- High Cholesterol and Blood Pressure: Contribute to plaque buildup in arteries.
- Obesity and Sedentary Lifestyle: Increase strain on the circulatory system.
Advanced Diagnostics
At Vanchilingam, we use cutting-edge technology to diagnose PVD and assess diabetic foot complications:
Doppler Ultrasound: Measures blood flow in the arteries and veins.
- Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI): Compares blood pressure in the ankle and arm to detect circulation issues.
- CT Angiography and MR Angiography: Provides detailed imaging of blood vessels to locate blockages.
- Toe Pressure Measurements: Evaluates circulation in diabetic foot patients.
Comprehensive Treatment Options
Peripheral Angioplasty and Stenting
- Opens narrowed or blocked arteries with balloons or stents.
- Restores blood flow and alleviates symptoms like pain and cramping.
Wound Care and Ulcer Management
- Advanced techniques to promote healing of diabetic foot ulcers.
- Includes specialized dressings, debridement, and infection control.
Lifestyle Modifications and Medical Management
- Medications: Blood thinners, cholesterol-lowering drugs, and diabetes management.
- Exercise Programs: Improves circulation and reduces symptoms.
- Nutritional Guidance: Supports overall vascular health.

What is Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)?
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) is a circulatory condition that occurs when blood vessels outside the heart and brain become narrowed or blocked, reducing blood flow to the limbs, particularly the legs. It can lead to pain, cramping, mobility issues, and, if untreated, increase the risk of ulcers, infections, and limb loss.
What are the common symptoms of Peripheral Vascular Disease?
Symptoms of PVD may include:
- Leg pain or cramping during walking (claudication)
- Numbness or weakness in the legs
- Coldness in the lower leg or foot
- Non-healing wounds or ulcers on the feet or toes
- Discoloration or shiny skin on the legs
What causes PVD and diabetic foot complications?
Several factors contribute to PVD and diabetic foot complications, including:
- Diabetes: High blood sugar damages blood vessels and nerves.
- Smoking: Narrows blood vessels, worsening circulation.
- High Cholesterol & Blood Pressure: Leads to plaque buildup in arteries.
- Obesity & Sedentary Lifestyle: Increases strain on the circulatory system.
How is Peripheral Vascular Disease diagnosed?
At Vanchilingam Advanced Neurology and Stroke Care, we use advanced diagnostic tools such as:
- Doppler Ultrasound: Measures blood flow in the arteries and veins.
- Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI): Compares blood pressure in the ankle and arm.
- CT Angiography & MR Angiography: Provides detailed imaging of blood vessels.
- Toe Pressure Measurements: Assesses circulation in diabetic foot patients.
What is Diabetic Foot Revascularization?

We offer a range of treatments, including:
- Peripheral Angioplasty & Stenting: Opens narrowed arteries to restore blood flow.
- Wound Care & Ulcer Management: Specialized treatments for diabetic foot ulcers.
- Medical Management & Lifestyle Modifications: Includes medications, exercise programs, and nutritional guidance to improve circulation.
What are the benefits of minimally invasive procedures for PVD?
Minimally invasive procedures, such as angioplasty and stenting, offer several advantages:
- Faster recovery time
- Reduced risk of complications
- Minimal discomfort compared to traditional surgery
- Effective restoration of blood circulation
How can I prevent Peripheral Vascular Disease and diabetic foot complications?
Prevention strategies include:
- Controlling blood sugar levels if you have diabetes
