vascular complications

Vascular complications refer to problems involving blood vessels, such as arteries and veins. These issues can include blockages that restrict blood flow, aneurysms which are weakened areas that may burst, or infections in the vessels. Common vascular problems can lead to serious conditions like strokes, heart attacks, or limb ischemia. They often result from underlying factors like atherosclerosis (buildup of plaque), high blood pressure, or diabetes. Accurate diagnosis and timely treatment are essential to prevent permanent damage and maintain healthy circulation throughout the body.
