Poor Circulation

Understanding Poor Circulation Poor circulation occurs when blood flow to certain parts of your body is reduced, potentially leading to discomfort, numbness, or more severe health issues. At Tinsley Surgical, we focus on diagnosing and treating the underlying causes of poor circulation to restore your health.

What Causes Poor Circulation? Several factors can contribute to poor circulation, including:

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): Narrowed arteries that reduce blood flow to the limbs.
• Diabetes: Damages blood vessels over time.
• Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, inactivity, and poor diet.

Recognizing the Symptoms

• Cold hands or feet.
• Numbness or tingling in extremities.
• Swelling in the lower legs or ankles.
• Non-healing wounds or ulcers.

Why Is Treatment Important? Ignoring poor circulation can lead to:

• Chronic pain and discomfort.
• Increased risk of infections.
• Severe complications like tissue damage or loss.

Our Treatment Approach At Tinsley Surgical, we offer personalized care tailored to your needs:

• Diagnostic Tests: Doppler ultrasounds and ankle-brachial index tests to assess blood flow.
• Lifestyle Recommendations: Guidance on exercise, smoking cessation, and dietary improvements.
• Medical and Surgical Interventions: Including arterial stents, bypass surgery, and minimally invasive techniques.

Preventive Measures
