Question 7

how much artery blockage causes pvd pain?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Interestingly it is not only the amount of blockage which causes pain when patients have pvd, but also how quickly the blockage develops. If it occurs slowly over years, many people don't necessarily have dramatic symptoms since the body has time to develop colaterals. If a blockage occurs abruptly (overnight) then even a short blockage can cause dramatic painful symptoms.
