Laser Therapy for Spider Veins from Varicose Vein Treatments Center NY

If you’ve been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, skin ulcers may be something you find to be an ongoing concern. A sore or wound that’s slow to heal can develop around the bony sections of your leg, such as your shins or ankles. Due to the greater pressure in your lower legs and feet, fluid and blood leak from your veins into the surrounding tissue. The extra fluid weakens the skin, causing it to break down.

Because your veins can’t circulate the blood as effectively, the nutrients and other healing agents that your body ordinarily sends to the site of a sore or wound fall short, meaning they don’t work as quickly or efficiently. If left untreated, these ulcers can lead to skin and bone infections. In rare cases, skin cancer may develop in chronic non-healing ulcers. Any wound that refuses to heal should be checked by your vein doctor NYC.

RISK FACTORS AND SYMPTOMS FOR ULCERS
Although anyone can get a leg ulcer at some point, you may be more susceptible than others. Dr. Bard, a top vein doctor in the country suggest that risk factors might include:

- Aging, as veins and skin weaken
- Gender, as women often have more circulatory problems — especially after pregnancies or hormone changes
- Previous leg injuries that may have compromised your veins
- Varicose veins
- Smoking
- Obesity
- Other circulatory problems such as blood clots or phlebitis
