Venous ulcers are the most common type of leg ulcer, accounting
for 70 -80% of all ulcers of the lower limbs.
 The
main cause of Venous Ulcers is venous disease, the failure
of the valves in the veins of the legs and the calf muscle
to circulate blood effectively. Resulting in blood congestion,
and swelling of the legs and potentially leading to ulceration.
Venous leg ulcers cause significant pain and reduce mobility,
resulting in an overall detrimental effect on quality of
