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 ]
Venous thromboembolism can occur with superficial vein thrombosis. Estimates of the percentage of patients with SVT who also have DVT vary between 6% and 53%, and symptomatic pulmonary embolism has been reported in 0% to 10% of patients with SVT. [4] Deep venous system, and may lead to pulmonary embolism. [14]

Typical causes of vasocongestion in humans includes menstruation , sexual arousal , REM sleep , strong emotions , illnesses , deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and allergic ...
IVCS presents with a wide variety of signs and symptoms, making it difficult to diagnose clinically. [citation needed] Edema of the lower extremities (peripheral edema), caused by an increase in the venous blood pressure. Tachycardia.

Venous thrombosis is the blockage of a vein caused by a thrombus (blood clot). A common form of venous thrombosis is deep vein thrombosis (DVT), when a blood clot forms in the deep veins. If a thrombus breaks off ( embolizes ) and flows to the lungs to lodge there, it becomes a pulmonary embolism (PE), a blood clot in the lungs.
Blood vessel disorder generally refers to the narrowing, hardening or enlargement of arteries and veins. It is often due to the build-up of fatty deposits in the lumen of blood vessels or infection of the vessel wall. This can occur in various locations such as coronary blood vessels, peripheral arteries and veins.
Because of its similarities to deep vein thrombosis (DVT), May–Thurner syndrome is rarely diagnosed amongst the general population. In this condition, the right iliac artery sequesters and compresses the left common iliac vein against the lumbar section of the spine, [5] resulting in swelling of the legs and ankles, pain, tingling, and/or numbness in the legs and feet.
