Recurrence rates are unfortunately high; estimated to be between 45-70%<\/li><li><strong>Varicose veins<\/strong> &#8211; individuals with varicose veins are at an increased risk of venous leg ulcers because their veins are already under high pressure<\/li><li><strong>Arterial disease<\/strong> \u2013 vein problems are more likely if the person already has other diseases of the arteries<\/li><li><strong>Age<\/strong> &#8211; the valves in the veins weaken with age and peripheral circulation becomes less efficient. This means blood is unable to flow normally through the body, which makes us more susceptible to venous insufficiency, leading to leg ulcers<\/li><li><strong>Deep vein thrombosis<\/strong> <strong>(DVT)<\/strong> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/uk-vc.com\/faqs-varicose-veins-operation\/#what-is-dvt\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">DVT<\/span><\/a> is a condition that occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the deep veins, particularly around the legs. These clots can damage the valves in the veins and increase the chances of developing a venous leg ulcer<\/li><li><strong>Impaired mobility<\/strong> &#8211; being immobile for an extended period of time means the calf muscle pump mechanism is not activated through movement (e.g. walking). This makes it more difficult for the veins to transport the deoxygenated blood from your legs back up to your heart properly, causing venous insufficiency<\/li><li><strong>Surgery or injury to the lower limbs<\/strong> &#8211; surgical procedures such as knee or hip replacements, or significant trauma injuries, can sometimes cause valve damage in the leg veins. Recovery from surgery or injury can also include reduced mobility, which can temporarily increase pressure in the veins<\/li><li><strong>Pressure sores<\/strong> \u2013 bed-bound people are at risk of pressure sores, which are areas of damage to the skin caused by constant pressure or friction<\/li><li><strong>Hereditary <\/strong>&#8211; family history of chronic venous insufficiency is a useful indicator of venous leg ulcer risk levels<\/li><li><strong>Obesity<\/strong> &#8211; being overweight increases the pressure in your veins, which can increase your risk of venous insufficiency or worsen any existing symptoms<\/li><li><strong>Smoking<\/strong> \u2013 tobacco is known to constrict the vessels of the circulatory system, having a negative impact on the flow of blood to the legs. Studies also show that smoking can lead to delayed wound healing for existing leg ulcers<\/li><li><strong>Co-occurring conditions<\/strong> \u2013 other health conditions, such as diabetes and arthritis, can increase the risk of venous insufficiency<\/li><li><strong>Medication<\/strong> \u2013 some cardiovascular medications can contribute to leg oedema (swelling due to a build-up of fluid) and altered circulation<\/li><li><strong>Having female anatomy<\/strong> &#8211; venous leg ulcer rates are higher in women than in men.

This may done both while standing and lying down, as any visible varicose veins are usually easier to identify whilst standing up, but it is simpler to identify and take a pulse in the ankles whilst lying down.<\/p><p>What is not obvious from visual examination is the underlying cause of leg ulcers. It is only possible to determine if an ulcer is venous by undertaking a colour duplex ultrasound scan which shows evidence of venous insufficiency.

Leg ulcer treatment would start with a <a href=\"https:\/\/uk-vc.com\/faqs-varicose-veins-operation\/#what-is-a-colour-duplex-ultrasound-scan\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">colour duplex ultrasound scan<\/span><\/a>, performed during your consultation, to define the extent of the underlying cause. From that scan the best course of treatment is defined for your case, tailored specifically to your condition.<\/p><p>Traditional treatment methods for leg ulcers involve cleaning and dressing the area and applying compression bandaging. However, leg ulcers are notoriously slow to heal, so this method often has a huge impact on quality of life, confining the patient to wearing compression bandages for months on end.<\/p><p>At UKVC we believe that treating the underlying cause of venous insufficiency, with EVLA and foam sclerotherapy, produces the best long term results. In our experience, leg ulcers both heal quicker and tend to remain healed following this treatment pathway.<\/p><p>Once your leg ulcer heals, you will still benefit from wearing <a href=\"https:\/\/uk-vc.com\/faqs-remove-varicose-veins\/#why-do-i-need-to-wear-compression-stockings-after-treatment\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">compression stockings<\/span><\/a> for a short period, as they help to reduce leg swelling by helping blood flow back to the heart.<\/p><p>We also recommend that you try to keep your legs elevated while sitting, keeping your legs above your heart, to help blood flow out of your leg and prevent pooling. Propping your legs up on a pillow or cushion is perhaps the simplest way to achieve the appropriate elevation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a8abe46 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6a8abe46\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_ha_eqh_enable&quot;:false}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25b361df elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"25b361df\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Treatment costs<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-41138549 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"41138549\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>We have a clear pricing structure, whether you are using <a href=\"https:\/\/uk-vc.com\/health-insurance-for-varicose-veins\/\"><u>health insurance<\/u><\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/uk-vc.com\/leg-ulcers-self-funded-treatment-prices\/\"><u>self-funding<\/u><\/a> your treatment with us.
