Arteries in the body play a very important role in maintaining human health.

If our arterial system doesn't work properly, the organs won't get the amount of blood they need and just won't be able to work properly.

In addition, a heart attack is usually a consequence of the fact that the arteries of a person are clogged as a result of his unhealthy lifestyle.

Doctors say to avoid serious health problems, you need to do more sports, lead an active lifestyle, eat healthy food and abandon bad habits.

Clogged arteries can cause stroke and various cardiovascular diseases.

Although in some cases it is difficult to identify problems with the arteries, there are some signs that will clearly give you to understand - you have serious problems and a bouquet of dangerous diseases is not far off.
So, if you notice at least one of these four signs, seek medical attention immediately before the problem worsens.

Leg pain (including lower limbs)

Peripheral artery disease leads to the accumulation of cholesterol or plaque formation.

If you notice pain or discomfort in your legs (including lower limbs), it is possible that you suffer from peripheral artery disease. Ultimately, this can limit your ability to walk.

In very extreme cases, this can lead to loss of the leg. Therefore, if you feel discomfort or pain in this area, seek medical attention immediately. Timely treatment is an important step in the fight against diseases.

Erectile dysfunction

Clogged arteries lead to limited blood flow, which means that men with erectile dysfunction may have more serious problems that really need to start worrying about.

Male health is arranged in such a way that in order to achieve and maintain an erection, the body must be able to provide certain places with free blood flow.

If you suffer from erectile dysfunction and do not know the cause, it may be time to see a doctor immediately.

Lower back pain

In the arteries located in the lower back, the fastest plaques are formed. This is the most dangerous area in the human body.

Lower back pain may be one of the first signs of clogged arteries.

The reason you experience pain in the lower back is the result of clogged arteries. This situation occurs due to the lack of blood on the intervertebral discs, which are a natural lubricant for your vertebrae.

The lack of normal functioning of blood in these places can lead to hernia and nerve damage.

Calf pain

Pain in the calf area can be the result of arteriosclerosis. Thickening or hardening of the arterial walls that block blood flow to the legs can lead to serious problems.

If something similar happens to you, and you often experience pain in the calf area, be sure to contact a specialist. One of the common symptoms of this problem is considered to be lameness.

Experts say that people who smoke at least a few cigarettes a day are at higher risk of arteriosclerosis, which can eventually lead to the development of claudication. Be sure to pay attention to this symptom.
