About Venous Hypertension

Venous hypertension is not a procedure but a chronic medical condition characterized by abnormally high blood pressure within the venous system, particularly in the legs. An Internal Medicine specialist manages this condition through a comprehensive, non-surgical approach focused on diagnosis, lifestyle modification, and medication. The management plan typically involves a detailed patient history, physical examination (often looking for signs like varicose veins, edema, or skin changes), and diagnostic tests like Doppler ultrasound to assess venous valve function and blood flow. Treatment aims to alleviate symptoms like leg pain, swelling, and heaviness, prevent complications such as venous ulcers, and improve overall venous health through compression therapy, exercise, and pharmacological interventions.
