Causes and Symptoms of Venous Ulcers
Venous leg ulcers are chronic wounds that most commonly develop around the ankles. Unlike arterial ulcers, venous ulcers are typically shallow with irregular edges. They form due to poor blood circulation and increased pressure in the leg veins, a condition known as venous insufficiency.
When veins are unable to efficiently return blood to the heart, blood pools in the lower legs. Over time, this pressure damages the surrounding tissue and leads to the development of persistent open sores that can be slow to heal without professional care.
Common symptoms of venous ulcers may include open wounds on the lower leg, skin discoloration, swelling, aching or heaviness, itching, and varying levels of discomfort. Early identification and treatment are key to preventing complications.
How We Treat Venous Leg Ulcers
Venous ulcer care requires a personalized approach based on the patient’s condition and overall health. Our mobile wound care services commonly include the following elements.
- On-site ulcer care delivered at home or in healthcare facilities
- Comprehensive assessment and diagnosis during mobile visits
- Individualized treatment plans designed to reduce symptoms and support healing
- Use of debridement, compression therapy, and advanced dressings when appropriate
- Ongoing wound monitoring to reduce the risk of recurrence
Without proper care, venous ulcers may lead to infection and tissue damage. Our mobile approach ensures timely treatment and consistent follow-up to support safe healing.
