A member asked:
Would you recommend vasculera or surgery for cvi ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You need treatment: Your symptoms would suggest that there is significant venous valvular reflux that requires intervention. The venous ulcers are a sign incompetent valves in both the superficial and either the perforating veins and deep veins or a combination. You need at least a diagnostic ultrasound (duplex exam) and compression, stockings and/or dressings. Ablation, laser or radio-frequency would be curative.
