Intermittent claudication is a common disease in which narrowed arteries reduce blood flow to the limbs. If it is caused by a buildup of plaques in your blood vessels (atherosclerosis), you're at risk of developing limb ischemia, stroke and heart attack.
The symptoms are muscle pain or cramping in your arms or legs (mostly in the calf) triggered by activity, and accompanied by numbness, weakness, coldness, sores that won't heal, shiny skin with change in the color, weak pulse, feeling cold and fatigue.
Causes of intermittent claudication are smoking and alcohol, diabetes and other metabolic diseases, hormonal disorders, obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high level of homocysteine, lack of exercise and a family history of peripheral artery disease.
In this naturopathic adviser, I will give you recommendations how to treat and prevent intermittent claudication naturally with Homeopathy, Schuessler salts (also named cell salts, tissue salts) and herbal tinctures.
I will present you the most proven homeopathic remedies and Schuessler salts, including the appropriate potency and dosage.
Naturopathy works holistically. It does not treat single symptoms only. It treats the whole body, mind and soul. I wish you much success, joy in life and especially your health.
