Varicose/Venous Ulcers Treatment

Varicose veins and venous ulcers are common yet often ignored circulatory conditions that affect the quality of life of thousands of people in Chennai. Pain, swelling, heaviness in the legs, skin discoloration, and non-healing wounds can gradually limit daily activities, disturb sleep, and lead to serious complications if not treated on time.

Ideal Physiotherapy Centre, Triplicane, Chennai, offers specialized, evidence-based physiotherapy treatment for varicose veins and venous ulcers, focusing on improving blood circulation, reducing pain and swelling, accelerating wound healing, and preventing recurrence—without surgery whenever possible.

Common Symptoms of Varicose Veins:

Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted, and visible veins that usually appear on the legs and feet due to poor blood flow and weak venous valves. Normally, veins carry blood back to the heart against gravity. When the valves fail, blood pools in the veins, causing them to stretch and bulge.

  • Pain or aching in the legs

  • Heaviness or tiredness after standing

  • Swelling in ankles and feet

  • Burning, throbbing, or muscle cramps
