- Feeling of coldness to lower extremities 
- Sores that won't heal (Diabetes are prone to this)
- Change in color (Dark red, if tissue becomes narcotic black color can be noticed) to lower extremities.
- Hair loss or either growth decrease due to poor circulation.

Hypoxemia due to the narrowing of the arteries causing low O2 in blood making poor gas exchange in the muscles. Causing or leading to narcosis. With patients that have a history of MI or Stroke this is causing Left Ventricle issues leading to Pulmonary Hypertension. Causing Pulmonary Edema leading to Crackles and or Wheezing.

2) Start making and or give list towards a healthy lifestyle by exercising and eating right.
3) Start on medications: Blood thinners and Blood pressure medication.
4) If 1-3 fail, start an invasive approach to help remove clots or re open narrowed arteries. 
5) If patient is noncompliant extremities will more like be amputated.
