Venous therapy

"At first I had swollen, painful legs and swollen ankles in the evenings. Then spider veins and varicose veins developed. Now I wear medi medical compression stockings. With these, my legs are relaxed right through to the evening and my ankles stay slim. The stockings help and work immediately – without any side effects! I am now in control of my problem veins.”

30,000 people a year are affected. Pulmonary embolism is the most feared complication of venous disease and is associated with deep vein thrombosis.

In spite of the latest operating methods and carefully thought-out forms of treatment, venous disease cannot be cured.

However, its progress can be considerably slowed down – e.g. by the regular wearing of medical compression stockings. Since vein disease passes through various stages and is progressive, the earlier the treatment is started the better.
