Varicose Veins
Varicose Veins are a condition characterised by enlargement and twisting of veins. It commonly affects the veins present in the legs due to increased pressure. There are valves in the veins that prevent blood from flowing backwards and allow it to move towards the heart. When these valves become defective, their leaflets fail to meet, causing the blood to pool up and the veins to swell. Varicose veins are not often considered a serious health condition but may affect the individual’s quality of life.
Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD)
A build-up of fatty deposits in the arteries (atherosclerosis) causes peripheral arterial disease (PAD), which reduces blood supply to the leg muscles. Peripheral vascular disease is another name for it (PVD).
PROCEDURE FOR TREATMENT OF VARICOSE VEINS
- ClosureFast Endovenous Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) therapy
- Endovenous Laser Therapy
- Clarivean Procedure
- Venaseal Closure System
- Ultrasound-guided Foam Sclerotherapy
- Sclerotherapy
- Vein Stripping Surgery
- Microphlebotomy
What are the effects of diabetes on the feet?
Improperly controlled diabetes can result in nerve damage and poor blood circulation. Foot ulcers, blisters, pain, and infections can result from this. Diabetes patients must take special care to avoid foot complications.
Aorta
The aorta is the human body’s largest artery and the blood vessel that transports oxygen-rich blood from the heart to various body organs.
The thoracic aorta is the aorta section that runs through the chest. The abdominal aorta is the aorta section that runs through the abdomen.
Aortic diseases can manifest in various ways and can be life-threatening.
Angioplasty
Angioplasty is a minimally invasive technique that uses a balloon to stretch the arteries and unblock a blocked artery. Angioplasty enhances blood flow by reducing the narrowing.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) develops when fatty deposits (plaque) build up inside an artery over time (atherosclerosis). The plaque narrows the artery, limiting blood flow to the lower limbs.
Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA)
The aorta is the human body’s largest artery and the blood vessel that transports oxygen-rich blood from the heart to various body organs. If the aortic walls become weak, they can swell or bulge out like a balloon. An abdominal aortic aneurysm occurs when this forms in the aorta section that runs through your abdomen (AAA). A ruptured AAA can be life-threatening.
Atherosclerosis (Arteriosclerosis)
Atherosclerosis develops when your arteries become clogged with fatty deposits (plaque), causing them to lose elasticity, ultimately resulting in a narrow lumen. The blood clots result from the gradual build-up of cholesterol, calcium, fat and other substances in your blood. Atherosclerosis is commonly associated with the heart. But it can affect arteries elsewhere in your body, reducing blood flow to vital organs and putting your health at risk.
