Poor walking pain may be a heart attack?

Male  48 years old 2018-06-05
When I exercise, I sometimes have a sudden leg pain and cramps. Is this because I am older or there may be other reasons?

    If your buttocks or leg muscles are cramping when climbing, walking or moving, and then relieved after a break, don't rashly attribute it to older or lack of exercise. This may be a symptom of peripheral arterial disease, and the probability of arterial occlusion in patients with this disease is 50%. However, the good news is that PAD is an easy-to-treat disease, without excessive panic.
