Poor Circulation

Poor circulation, diagnosed and fixed

Cold feet, numb toes, slow-healing skin — not just “getting older.” Our vascular team finds the cause and restores blood flow, usually in one visit.

Poor Circulation care at Advanced Medical Group
Overview

What “poor circulation” usually means

Poor circulation is a symptom, not a single disease — it can be caused by narrowed arteries (PAD), venous insufficiency, blood-vessel inflammation, or a combination. The first job is to figure out which one is yours, because each requires a different fix.

Most cases respond beautifully to a combination of focused medication, simple lifestyle changes, and (when warranted) a minimally invasive procedure to open a narrowed artery or close a leaking vein. The goal is the same: get warm, oxygen-rich blood reliably reaching your fingertips and toes again.

FAQ

Common questions

Real, specific answers from our team. If your question is not here, our front desk can usually answer it in a 5-minute phone call.

How do I know if it’s an artery or a vein problem?

Arterial problems usually cause cold, pale skin and pain that gets worse with walking. Venous problems usually cause swelling, heaviness and skin discoloration that gets worse with standing. A 30-minute ultrasound tells us which (or both).

Can poor circulation be reversed?

In most cases, yes. Restoring blood flow with focused treatment plus risk-factor control reverses the visible symptoms — warmer feet, better walking distance, faster wound healing — usually within weeks.

Do I have to take medication forever?

It depends on the cause. Some patients need long-term statins or antiplatelets to keep arteries open. Others only need a one-time procedure plus lifestyle changes.

Is poor circulation a sign of something more serious?

It can be. PAD in the legs predicts heart attack and stroke risk. Catching circulation problems early is genuinely protective for the whole body.

What can I do at home?

Walk daily — even 10–15 minutes helps. Quit smoking. Elevate legs if you have swelling. Keep diabetes and blood pressure controlled. We’ll build a personalized plan with you.

Is this covered by insurance?

Yes — diagnostic ultrasound and ABI are covered by Medicare and virtually all commercial plans when symptoms are documented. We verify before your visit.
