This process makes it more difficult for your heart to pump blood out to your extremities. PAD tends to attacks the lower extremities (such as your&nbsp;groin, knee, shin or calf) as they are furthest from your heart and it takes your heart the most effort to reach.

Many adults have no clue what PAD is and how it presents itself. This is not a good combination as it is critical that PAD is caught early on.
