As the saying goes, the old man’s legs get old first. As we age, all aspects of human function are gradually degenerating, the original flexible and coordinated legs become clumsy and sluggish, and when you are not careful when walking, you either step on the air or stumble. A survey shows that leg diseases have become a big problem for the elderly! However, there has been a misconception that elderly people have leg pain, walking weakness, because people are old, caused by osteoporosis, a natural phenomenon. Not to pay attention to, or just in a variety of calcium products, individual patients even do orthopedic surgery. Unbeknownst to us, many times, it is because the elderly suffer from atherosclerosis occlusive disease. Lower extremity atherosclerosis occlusive disease refers to the formation of atherosclerotic plaque on the inner wall of the artery, proliferating and protruding into the blood vessel, with the continuous expansion of the plaque and the formation of secondary thrombus, so that the blood vessel becomes narrow, blood flow slows down, blood flow decreases, when the narrowing reaches a certain level, or even the formation of lumen occlusion, the blood flow supplied to the lower extremity can not meet the needs of the body, the lower extremity will have chronic or acute ischemic symptoms. Pay attention to small details to avoid big trouble. Generally speaking, in the early stage, patients can feel cold and frigid in their feet and legs, or have mild numbness, and easily feel fatigue and heavy weakness in their legs after walking and other activities. If the lesion continues to develop, the patient will usually experience the following: when walking, due to the ischemia and lack of oxygen in the foot and leg, calf muscle spasm, pain and fatigue and weakness are more likely to occur. The walking must be stopped and the symptoms relieved after a few moments of rest before continuing the activity. If you walk a certain distance, the above symptoms will recur again. Patients can try to touch the dorsalis pedis artery located at the midpoint of the dorsal arch of the foot, if the beat is weaker than the normal beat at the wrist, and the foot appears cold and pale, it can be initially judged that the lower limb arteriosclerosis. At this time, you should immediately go to the hospital for further examination, otherwise the treatment time will be delayed. With the development of medicine and further refinement of clinical subspecialties, lower limb atherosclerosis occlusive disease is getting more and more attention from doctors, and its treatment is slowly developing from simple symptomatic treatment —- amputation to maximizing limb preservation and improving patients’ quality of life as the goal. This change in concept is due to the rapid development of increasingly mature vascular surgery, especially minimally invasive endoluminal treatment in vascular surgery. Yangzhou, an ancient city with a rich cultural heritage, has a comfortable life, and it is also this leisure that has blocked communication with the outside world. There has been no formal vascular surgery in major hospitals, and patients with vascular diseases in and around Yangzhou are not clearly diagnosed and formally treated, and in the process of moving around for medical treatment, they are plagued by pain until they are desperate and no longer have any hope of suffering from their disease, and accept simple orthopedic amputation at a huge cost to reduce pain and suffering. A “crippled” old age, how to sunset red again?
