Healthy circulation is vital to the effective functioning of your body. If your blood vessels become damaged or diseased, this can restrict blood flow to the body’s tissues and organs, depleting them of oxygen and much-needed nutrients....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
Poor blood circulation is the impaired flow of blood to certain parts of the body. It is mostly noticed at body extremities like the toes and fingers. Poor blood circulation is a condition that results from an underlying disturbance, disorder or disease.
According to WebMd, here are signs of poor blood circulation on the legs you shouldn’t ignore.
Varicose vein
Valve failures in the veins can result in enlarged varicose veins. In addition to an unpleasant aesthetic look, varicose veins are not as efficient at moving blood as healthy veins. This can cause poor blood circulation and, in rare cases, blood clots.
Painful cramps
You may experience painful cramps in your hip, thigh or calf muscles during activity, which gets better after rest. Typically the pain comes on each time after the same amount of exercise (e.g walking the same distance at the same pace).
Cold feets
Reduced blood flow causes the feet to feel much colder than the rest of the body. When blood cannot flow at healthy rates, this can lead to temperature fluctuations in the skin and nerve endings of the hands and feet.
Weak nails
One of the things that makes nails strong and durable is nutrients delivered by the blood. If you notice your toe nails have become weak or flaky, you may not be receiving adequate blood flow.
