Look at clinical findings if you can"t find pulses. Quick and easy can be preformed at bed side. Place cuff on extremity until pulse is occluded. Listen with doppler for number at which pulse comes back. Means that even when resting the tissue doesn"t have enough oxygen. Regular inspection of extremities with referral for treatment and follow up for any evidence of infection or inflammation. Exercise doesn"t have to be more than this. Always consult primary health care provider before prescribing an exercise routine. When you push to the point of colloidal pain vessels dilate and improve vasculature. The hematoma is outside of the arterial wall. 1,2, or 3 layers of the artery may be involved. Hematoma develops within and splits the layers of the arterial wall.
