Venous Ulcers are a type of wound that occur when the veins in the legs are unable to adequately return blood to the heart. This can be caused by a variety of factors, including deep vein thrombosis, obesity, and prolonged standing. Venous Ulcers are the most common type of leg ulcer, accounting for up to 80% of all leg ulcers. Venous Ulcers are typically treated with a combination of compression therapy, wound care, and lifestyle changes. Compression therapy involves the use of bandages or stockings to reduce swelling and improve circulation. Wound care involves the use of dressings to keep the wound clean and promote healing. Lifestyle changes may include weight loss, exercise, and elevating the legs when sitting or lying down. There are a number of companies that specialize in the treatment of Venous Ulcers. These include Smith & Nephew, Mölnlycke Health Care, ConvaTec, and Coloplast. These companies provide a range of products, including compression therapy, wound care, and lifestyle management solutions. Show Less Read more
