Leg Vein Disease
Leg vein disorders affect blood return to the heart and include conditions such as chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), varicose veins, and deep vein thrombosis (DVT). The core issue is often venous valve dysfunction.

- Open leg ulcers (venous ulcers)
Causes & Risk Factors:
- Genetic predisposition
- Physical inactivity, standing occupations
- Obesity, pregnancy
- Aging, hormonal changes
Therapy & Prevention:
- Compression therapy
- Venous exercises and walking
- Weight management
- Surgical interventions (e.g., laser, sclerotherapy)
- Nutritional support (e.g., OPC, vitamin C, astaxanthin, lactoferrin)
