Someone told me taraymeenay oil and index massage and good for blood circulation. Is it true ? Should I do same? Any other remedies to make sure good blood circulation

How much is his blood pressure? A calcium channel blocker will increase foot circulation, if the doppler is showing reduced flow to the feet. The prescription shows a lipid lowering drug and antiplatelet drug.
I will advise to keep his hands and feet well covered. He should also move in and around the house. Norvasc 5mg daily in the morning will improve his foot circulation. Vitamin B3 in the form of Surbex-Z one daily will help.
