Numbness, cold, or losing hair in your hands or feet? Pale or blueish skin? These could mean you aren't getting enough blood to the area. They could be signs of peripheral artery disease (PAD).

Peripheral artery disease usually happens when arteries in your pelvis, leg, or arm become narrow or blocked. This is caused by the buildup of plaque in the arteries, which creates atherosclerosis.
