About 20% of patients with mild PAD may be asymptomatic; other symptoms include:
- Claudication- pain, weakness, numbness, or cramping in muscles due to decreased blood flow
- Sores, wounds, or ulcers that heal slowly or not at all
- Noticeable change in color (blueness or paleness) or temperature (coolness) when compared to the other limb (termed unilateral dependent rubor; when both limbs are affected this is termed bilateral dependent rubor)
- Diminished hair and nail growth on affected limb and digits.
