Overview

Venous stasis ulcers develop when there is long term swelling and poor blood flow in the veins. As the tissues of the leg start to breakdown, the ulcer forms. It is important to make sure there is no arterial blockage contributing to the ulcer.

You can trust our vascular surgeons with your ulcer treatment. You can schedule an appointment with one of our specialists by calling Vascular Health Partners at (518) 782-3900.
