  2. Chronic venous insufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_venous_insufficiency

    Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a medical condition characterized by blood pooling in the veins, leading to increased pressure and strain on the vein walls. [1] The most common cause of CVI is superficial venous reflux, which often results in the formation of varicose veins, a treatable condition. [2]

  3. Vascular disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vascular_disease

    Venous insufficiency is the most common disorder of the venous system, and is usually manifested as either spider veins or varicose veins. Several treatments are available including endovenous thermal ablation (using radiofrequency or laser energy), vein stripping, ambulatory phlebectomy, foam sclerotherapy, laser, or compression.

  4. Peripheral artery disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_artery_disease

    Peripheral arterial disease is more common in these populations: [42] [50] All people who have leg symptoms with exertion (suggestive of claudication) or ischemic rest pain; All people aged 65 years and over, regardless of risk factor status; All people between 50 and 69 who have a cardiovascular risk factor (particularly diabetes or smoking)

  5. Venous ulcer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venous_ulcer

    The skin surrounding a venous ulcer may be edematous (swollen) and there may be evidence of varicose veins; the skin surrounding an arterial ulcer may be pale, cold, shiny and hairless. Both venous and arterial ulcers may be painful, however arterial ulcers tend to be more painful, especially with elevation of the leg, for example when in bed.

  6. Vasculitis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasculitis

    Non-specific symptoms are common and include fever, headache, fatigue, myalgia, weight loss, and arthralgia. [5] [6] All forms of vasculitis, even large vessel vasculitides, may cause skin manifestations. The most common skin manifestations include purpura, nodules, livedo reticularis, skin ulcers, and purpuric urticaria. [7]

  7. Lipodermatosclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipodermatosclerosis

    The management of lipodermatosclerosis may include treating venous insufficiency with leg elevation and elastic compression stockings. [9] In some difficult cases, the condition may be improved with the additional use of the fibrinolytic agent, stanozol. Fibrinolytic agents use an enzymatic action to help dissolve blood clots.

  8. Arterial stiffness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arterial_stiffness

    Arterial stiffness may also affect the time at which pulse wave reflections return to the heart. As the pulse wave travels through the circulation it undergoes reflection at sites where the transmission properties of the arterial tree change (i.e. sites of impedance mismatch). These reflected waves propagate backward towards the heart.

  9. Angiopathy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiopathy

    Currently, while there is no cure for angiopathy, there are ways through which the symptoms can be managed. For example, therapies. Treatment options for situations of muscle weakness may include speech, occupational, or physical therapy. Medication can be used for potential seizures and memory loss. [3]
