   On the other hand, when the symptoms exceed 14 days, [3] it is called critical limb ischemia (CLI). CLI is the end stage of peripheral vascular disease where there is still some collateral circulation (alternate circulation pathways) that bring some blood flow (although inadequate) to the distal parts of the limbs. [2]

5. Chronic limb threatening ischemia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_limb_threatening...

   Critical limb ischemia is diagnosed by the presence of ischemic rest pain, and an ulcers that will not heal or gangrene due to insufficient blood flow. [3] Insufficient blood flow may be confirmed by ankle-brachial index (ABI), ankle pressure, toe-brachial index (TBI), toe systolic pressure, transcutaneous oxygen measurement (TcpO2 ), or skin perfusion pressure (SPP).

6. Chronic venous insufficiency - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

   Chronic venous ulcers are painful and debilitating. Even with treatment, recurrences are common if venous hypertension persists. Nearly 60% develop phlebitis which often progresses to deep vein thrombosis in more than 50% of patients. The venous insufficiency can also lead to severe hemorrhage.

   Symptoms classically affect a leg and typically develop over hours or days, [20] though they can develop suddenly or over a matter of weeks. [21] The legs are primarily affected, with 4–10% of DVT occurring in the arms. [11] Despite the signs and symptoms being highly variable, [5] the typical symptoms are pain, swelling, and redness.
