EDEMA

Swelling of the foot, ankle and leg can be severe enough to leave an indentation (pit) when you press on the area. This swelling (edema) is the result of excess fluid in your tissues — often caused by Venous reflux and /or Lymphedema in the affected leg. 

LYMPHEDEMA

When Lymphedema is caused by chronic venous insufficiency, Vein closure may be used to treat underlying cause. Vein Closure has many modalities (ways to treat) such as heat, from a laser or Radiofrequency energy, or medical adhesives to seal closed damaged veins. The treated veins are reabsorbed into the body and blood flow is rerouted to healthy veins.
