You need to do surgery, invasive or non-invasive. Consult vascular surgeon or non-invasive cardiologists discussing your case.

The condition is called intermittent claudication due to obstruction of major vessel. First of all surgical intervention will be needed to relieve the block. Long term medication (blood thinning agent like warfarin) may be needed thereafter. I would be better able to help you out if you give me detail history with the reports. Regards.
