Understanding Varicose/Venous Ulcers
Physiotherapy for varicose/venous ulcers plays a crucial role in addressing conditions linked to inadequate venous circulation, particularly in the legs. Varicose veins arise when veins become enlarged and twisted, often due to weakened or damaged valves that prevent proper blood flow back to the heart. This ineffective circulation leads to blood pooling, increasing pressure in the veins and resulting in their characteristic swollen and bulging appearance under the skin.
Several factors contribute to the development of varicose veins and venous ulcers, including prolonged periods of standing, obesity, aging, pregnancy, genetic predisposition, and a lack of physical activity. Symptoms often include aching pain, a feeling of heaviness in the legs, swelling, itching, and discoloration of the skin. Without effective treatment, there is a risk of infection in venous ulcers, complicating the healing process.
