Detailed Answer:
Hi there.

Thanks for the query

It is possible that his blood vessels may have narrowed causing decrease in blood circulation.

He may need a 2D Colour Doppler or the blood vessels of the legs and a General surgeon or Vascular surgeon to diagnose and treat his condition.

I hope I have answered your query.

I will be available to answer your follow up queries.

Regards,

Dr. Aashish Raghu
