If an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) in the leg is left untreated, it may gradually get larger and cause increasing pain, swelling, skin discoloration, and visible enlarged veins. Over time, it can lead to skin ulcers, bleeding, recurrent infections, difficulty walking, and damage to the surrounding muscles and bones. In some cases, large AVMs can place extra strain on the heart because blood flows through them abnormally. Early evaluation and treatment can help prevent these complications and preserve the function of the leg.
