Expert Advice From Center For Venous Disease
People with varicose veins and other related symptoms suffer from chronic venous disease, which occurs when blood pools in the lower extremities and gives rise to varicose veins. Those with long-standing venous insufficiency and varicose veins are at risk to develop venous stasis ulcers. These progressive ulcers most commonly occur on the inner or outer lower leg just above or at the ankle, and are an ulceration of the skin. They are commonly irregular in shape and are often painful. Early treatment is the best answer from both a cost standpoint and for the best outcome.
