Nedsatt blodsirkulasjon i beina

Claudicatio intermittens, "røykeben", er smerter i beina på grunn av for dårlig blodsirkulasjon i pulsårene (arteriene).

Sener i legg og fot
Åreforkalkning, det vil si avleiring av kolesterol og fettpartikler på innsiden av blodårene, er årsaken til "røykeben"

Hva er claudicatio intermittens?

Claudicatio intermittens, "røykeben", er smerter i beina på grunn av for dårlig blodsirkulasjon i pulsårene (arteriene). Typisk for denne tilstanden er at du kjenner smerter og dovenhetsfølelse i leggene ved gange. Dette blir bedre ved hvile. Det kan også være smertefullt om natta, men det kan da hjelpe å sitte med beina hengende utenfor senga. Føttene er bleke og kalde, og sår på beina gror som regel langsomt.

3 prosent av befolkningen i aldersgruppen 50-59 år har trange blodårer i bena, 5-8 prosent i aldersgruppen 60-69 år, og over 20 prosent i aldersgruppe over 80 år. Menn rammes dobbelt så hyppig som kvinner. Dersom du røyker og/eller har diabetes og/eller høyt blodtrykk, øker risikoen for trange blodårer betydelig.
