WHAT CAUSES VENOUS LEG ULCERS? IN INDIA
A venous leg ulcer is an open, chronic wound that takes weeks or sometimes months to heal. It can affect any area of the skin but usually occur on the inside of the leg, above the ankle. They are caused by blood flow disturbance in leg veins. Normally, when there is a scrape or cut in the body, the body’s natural healing system starts repairing & healing those injuries and in time, the wound heals. But this isn’t the case with ulcers. They need advanced venous leg ulcer care & attention to avoid any complications. Causes of Venous Leg Ulcers? Venous ulceration occurs when there is an injury or breakage in the skin on your leg, most commonly around the ankle. The veins in the leg which are responsible to send oxygen & nutrient-rich blood back to the heart may get damaged. This disturbs blood circulation and increases pressure on the leg valves, further resulting in the pooling of blood in the veins. Due to this, a small and open sore occurs on the skin of the leg, known as a venous leg ulcer. This condition is called sustained venous hypertension.
