Case Study

Mary had been grappling with persistent venous ulcers on her lower legs for over three years. The constant pain, swelling, and recurrent nature of these ulcers took a toll on Mary's physical and emotional well-being, restricting her mobility and diminishing her quality of life. These ulcers were a result of impaired blood circulation caused by chronic venous insufficiency, a condition where the veins in the legs have difficulty returning blood to the heart.

Chronic venous ulcers typically develop due to prolonged venous hypertension and inflammation, leading to:

  • skin breakdown

  • non-healing wounds
