Blood flow is the continuous circulation of blood in
the cardiovascular system.It is an important part of your
body's overall function and health.Your heart pumps blood
through blood vessels within your circulatory system. Red
blood cells have specific tasks of carrying oxygen to your
body's vital organs, providing vitality and energy, explains
the National Library of Medicine. When your vital organs
and circulatory system work in unison, you have an adequate
blood flowThis process ensures the transportation of nutrients,
hormones, metabolic wastes, O2 and CO2 throughout the body
to maintain cell-level metabolism, the regulation of the
pH, osmotic pressure and temperature of the whole body,
and the protection from microbial and mechanical harms
The Circulatory system is an organ system driven by
the heart, to provide a constant supply of blood to the
body through the blood vessels. Your circulation of blood
plays a very important role in your health as it transports
adult stem cells, red & white blood cells, hormones,
plasma etc
"An increase in blood
flow or circulation in the body can help benefit
the heart and the body's muscles and arteries
throughout the body. Increased blood circulation
improves oxygen rich blood flow to extremities.
You may experience an increase in blood flow
to vital organs when you improve oxygen levels
in your blood by exercising muscles and working
out." |
Blood circulation is essential for a healthy
body. Every cell in the body needs to received oxygen
and nutrients. Blood rich in oxygen is sent to the body
organs, tissues and cells to nourish them, and the waste
products that result are disposed of through the same
system. The heart, lungs and blood vessels work together
to complete circulation. The two major pathways are cardiopulmonary
and systemic circulation. The three specialized routes
are coronary, portal and fetal circulation. The body
cannot function well without a strong circulatory system. Ozonated

The arterial doppler test is a blood pressure
test for the arteries in your legs, arms etc.
It's usually to see if there is a lack of blood
flow through your legs, which may be caused by
a blockage in your arteries. The blockage may
be a result of plaque or cholesterol that has
built up in the arterial wall
|
Aging
Circulation is affected by aging. As the body
ages, the arteries lose some of their elasticity and
become less pliable and smaller. This causes the heart
to work harder to push the blood through the arteries
to the body, resulting in decreased blood flow to the
organs such as the brain, as well as an increase in blood
pressure. Veins also suffer some changes that weaken
the walls and valves of the vessels, making older people
more prone to varicose veins. The smooth inner lining
of all blood vessels becomes a bit rough as the body
ages, leaving a body more prone to blood clots or thromboses.
If you
have a disease or condition that affects the circulatory
system, blood flow may decrease.
Diagnosing peripheral artery
disease is simple and painless. Using a handheld
ultrasound probe, the blood pressure at the ankle
and upper arm is detected; it should be roughly
equal. If the pressure in the ankle is significantly
less, peripheral artery disease MAY be present. |
Some of the
common causes of poor circulation?
Smoking is a sure fire reason for this. It may not be easy, but
you should quit.
The arteries bring oxygen
and other nutrients to the cells of the body.
The veins take away the blood after the cells
have taken in the oxygen and nutrients and given
up their waste products, such as carbon dioxide.
If blood flow is decreased to any part of the
body, that area does not get enough oxygen and
nutrients and is unable to get rid of its waste
products adequately.; |
Years and years of no exercise can lead
to bad circulation. It doesn't happen overnight but usually
creeps up on a person. However, you can improve things
fairly quickly if you DO something about it.
Eating too much junk food which usually leads to being
overweight is also a prime reason. Start making some
lifestyle changes. Even little ones at first can lead
to quick improvements.
People who have leg pain when
exercising may need an evaluation to make sure
they have normal blood flow through their leg
arteries. Normally blood pressure is similar
whether it is measured in the legs or in the
arms. If blood pressure is lower in the legs,
it usually means that cholesterol buildup inside
the leg arteries is interfering with circulation.
By taking accurate blood pressure measurements
at different locations along your legs, your
doctors can determine if you have any arterial
narrowing and, if so, where.
In order to get blood pressure
measurements, your doctor uses a technique
called Doppler ultrasound. Doppler ultrasound
is a painless way to detect blood flowing through
a small artery. It uses sound waves and a type
of sonar detection system to make noise when
blood flow is detected.

The most
common Symptoms of poor circulation
Cold feet and toes - not just in winter
time
Cold hands and fingers
Feeling numb in certain parts of the body especially the extremities
Feeling tired or having a lack of energy much of the time
Some hair loss can be because of bad blood flow
Having regular dizzy spells
If your skin gets dry even though you drink plenty of water
Swelling and water retention - especially in the feet
Lumps in blood vessels and varicose veins
Some headaches can be due to this
Cramps and pins and needles
Feeling short of breath at times
Blotches and blemishes in the skin
Poor blood flow to the brain may affect memory
Investigators discovered pre-menopausal
women who aren’t interested in sex and are unhappy
about it have distinctive blood flow patterns in their
brains in response to explicit videos, compared to women
with normal sexual function.
The study is reported in the journal Fertility and Sterility.
Decreased blood flow can occur in the arteries
and veins anywhere in the body, such as the neck and
brain. When the neck arteries (carotid arteries) become
occluded, symptoms such as dizziness, confusion, drowsiness,
headache, and/or a brief loss of ability to speak or
move, may be the early warning signs of a possible stroke
(brain attack).
.A water-soluble gel is placed on a handheld device
called a transducer, which directs the high-frequency
sound waves to the artery or veins being tested;
This technique is used to measure and assess the flow
of blood through the blood vessels. The amount of blood
pumped with each beat is an indication of the size of
a vessel’s opening. Also, Doppler can detect abnormal
blood flow within a vessel, which can indicate a blockage
caused by a blood clot, a plaque, or inflammation.
Check the blood flow in in your legs arms finger neck
toes reproductive organs etc,,is it strong or weak measure
