Answer:

Answer is cool feet and diminshed pulses.

Refer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Atherosclerosis squares blood vessel stream to distal zones; discontinuous claudication implies essentially "limping in view of ischemic agony," so you interface this with PAD and lessened flow to feet.

Answer:

Cold feet accompanied by diminished pulses.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because Artherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) causes blockage of the arterial flow to distal areas; intermittent claudication (limping because of ischemic pain) so you can do this with PAD and This there is diminished flow to feet.
