Pulseless Disease treatment in Magdalena Contreras

Pulseless disease, known in medicine as Takayasu arteritis, is an inflammation of the large arteries—especially the aorta and its branches—that can narrow these vessels and make it harder for blood to reach different areas of the body.

Common symptoms: a weakened or absent pulse in the arms, dizziness, fatigue, pain in the limbs with exertion, and differences in blood pressure between one side and the other.

When should you see a doctor? Difficulty feeling the pulse, recurring dizziness, or unusual tiredness in young people warrant an evaluation.

Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist takes part in studying how the vessels and the heart are affected. If a problem with circulation in the large arteries is suspected, it is advisable for this professional to carry out a detailed evaluation.
