In this group belong the vascular diseases. The most common cause of chronic venous disease is directly correlated with hereditary factors bad habits and the lifestyle. The secondary varicose is caused by malformations, traumatism and deep vein thrombosis. The concept of chronic venous diseases encompasses a wide range of venous diseases, from ordinary telangiectasia (spider veins), reticular veins to varicose veins. The limb edema is often caused by diminished venous wall function accompanied by flap dysfunction. The complications of chronical venous diseases are trophic skin changes with hyperpigmentation, lipodermatosclerosis, the appearance of varicose ulcers and superficial thrombophlebitis. The more serious forms of chronic venous disease are referred to as chronic venous insufficiency. According to this definition, clinical manifestations of chronic venous diseases, such as skin hyperpigmentation, venous eczema, lipodermosclerosis, white atrophy, and healing venous ulcers, fall into the chronic venous insufficiency category. The first sign of chronic venous insufficiency is swelling of the limb even when the varicose is missing.The principle reasons for chronic venous insufficiency appearance are heredity and the style of life.
