Venous insufficiency, which is the inability of veins to efficiently return blood from the legs to the heart, can cause a range of hidden problems, including:

  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) – Blood clots can form in the veins due to sluggish blood flow.

  • Chronic venous hypertension – High pressure in the veins can damage tissues and lead to chronic swelling, pain, and skin changes.

  • Venous ulcers – Prolonged swelling can lead to skin breakdown and the development of painful, slow-healing wounds on the legs.

  • Increased risk of infection – Open wounds or skin changes can increase the risk of skin infections.

  • Venous stasis dermatitis – Inflammation and discoloration of the skin can occur due to stagnant blood flow.

These hidden problems can significantly impact a person’s quality of life, so it is important to seek treatment if you suspect you may have venous insufficiency.
