Did You Know ?
Chronic Venous Insufficiency occurs when the veins in the legs have difficulty returning blood back to the heart efficiently.
Over time, this can lead to:
• Leg heaviness or aching
• Swelling around the ankles and lower legs
• Skin discoloration or darkening
• Visible varicose veins
• Tightness or fatigue in the legs
• Skin texture changes or wounds that heal slowly
When fluid continues to build up over time, the lymphatic system can also become overwhelmed sometimes contributing to a combined condition known as phlebolymphedema.
This is why proper clinical assessment matters.
Management may include:
• Compression therapy
• Therapeutic exercise and mobility
• Skin care education
• Elevation strategies
• Manual lymphatic techniques when appropriate
• Collaboration with your physician or vascular specialist
At Lymphedema Oncology & Occupational Therapy Professionals, care is focused on identifying the underlying cause of swelling and supporting safe, functional management strategies tailored to each individual.
