Notice any hairless toes? You could have arterial disease. If the hair on your toes suddenly disappear, it could indicate poor circulation caused by peripheral artery disease (PAD). Symptoms are decreased hair growth on the feet and ankles, purplish toes, and thin or shiny skin. PAD, a build-up of plaque in the leg arteries, affects an estimate of 8 million Americans. The symptoms are hardly noticeable, but doctors can detect it by taking the pulse in the foot pad or by a stain on an X-ray.
