Pharmacist reveals two w:arning signs of silent kš“²llєr that you might spot in your feet

The NHS website states, ā€œMany PAD patients have no symptoms. But some get a leg ache when walking, which eases after a few minutes’ rest. This is called ā€˜intermittent claudicationā€™. The pain can vary from mild to severe and usually goes away when you rest. Both legs are often affected, though one may hurt more.ā€

Other symptoms to note are tingling, burning, dry skin, pain, cracked skin, and non – healing blisters or sores.

Also, be aware of fungal infections and athlete’s foot; they could signal something serious.

Sorry if you’re eating, but watch for thick yellow nails too. They can indicate heart problems or diabetes.

What other symptoms to look for?
For heart issues, watch for chest pains, heart palpitations, or shortness of breath. For diabetes, you might feel constantly tired, have unexplained weight loss, or be very sleepy after meals.

It’s time to forget embarrassment and start regularly checking your feet.
