FAQ’s
What causes venous insufficiency?
Your veins have tiny one-way valves that help your blood travel back up to the heart, and if those valves get weak or damaged, blood can pool in the legs and cause symptoms like swelling and heaviness. They can form after a blood clot, prolonged periods of time sitting or standing, obesity, pregnancy, age, injury, or genetics.
Is venous insufficiency serious if I leave it alone?
If it is ignored, venous insufficiency can gradually get worse and cause your skin to change color, and you can develop sores or ulcers. It is important to seek medical help if you begin to notice symptoms.
Can you have venous insufficiency without having varicose veins?
Yes. Some people can have venous insufficiency without seeing any visible varicose veins, but they may feel pain or their legs may feel heavy.
How is venous insufficiency diagnosed?
Doctors usually use a special ultrasound imaging test to look at the way your blood is flowing in your leg veins because it can show if the valves are working and if the blood is moving correctly through your veins.
Will this condition ever go away on its own?
No. Venous insufficiency usually does not go away on its own because the damaged valves do not repair themselves. The symptoms of the condition can be managed with treatments like compression garments and lifestyle changes can prevent the damage from getting worse.
