Pain In Leg While Walking. Diagnosed As Hardening Of Arteries In Leg, Collapsed Artery. Cure For Pain?
I am told I have Hardening of the Arteries in my right leg. I began having pain in the leg while walking, some five years and had an artery removed from the leg two years agop. Now the Artery has collapsed and my Dr.. tells me there is nothing more to be done for me and I will have to live with the pain (which I now constantly experience in my right calf and foot) for the remainder of my life. Can you give me any hope for a cure????

Hi,
It seems that you might have Varicose vein or having Deep vein thrombosis.
Color Doppler might help to give some conclusion about your problem.
Consult Vascular surgeon and get examined.
Ok and take care.
