Varicose Veins

Enlarged, twisted veins, typically occurring in the legs, due to weakened vein walls and valves, resulting in the pooling of blood and visible bulging veins.

Deep Vein Thrombosis

The formation of blood clots in deep veins, often in the legs, which can be dangerous if clots break free and travel to the lungs (pulmonary embolism).

Venous Ulcers

Non-healing wounds on the legs or ankles caused by poor blood circulation in the veins, often associated with venous insufficiency.

Klippel-Trenaunay Syndrome

Vascular Malformations

Abnormal developments of blood vessels that can be present from birth and vary in size and location, potentially causing complications depending on the type and location.

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome

A condition in which varicose veins develop in the pelvic area, leading to chronic pelvic pain and discomfort, often in women.

Thrombophlebitis

Inflammation of a vein often associated with blood clot formation, which can lead to pain, swelling, and redness in the affected area.
