A venous ulcer is a slow-healing wound, usually found on the lower leg, caused by poor blood circulation in the veins. They can be painful, prone to infection, and significantly impact quality of life. Common causes include long-standing varicose veins, deep vein thrombosis, or chronic venous insufficiency.
At Radiance Clinic, Thane, Dr Ashish Sarode, a board certified vascular and interventional radiologist, venous ulcer care goes beyond simple wound dressing. The treatment plan focuses on addressing the underlying venous problem to promote healing and prevent recurrence. This may involve compression therapy, infection control, and advanced procedures like laser treatments to improve circulation.
Leaving a venous ulcer untreated can lead to chronic pain, worsening wounds, and serious complications. Early intervention helps reduce healing time and lowers the risk of future ulcers. Book a consultation today to start a comprehensive recovery plan.
