ENTENDIENDO LA INSUFICIENCIA VENOSA CRÓNICA (IVC)
Las venas sanas de las piernas contienen válvulas que se abren y se cierran para ayudar a la sangre a regresar al corazón. El reflujo venoso se presenta cuando las válvulas que mantienen el flujo sanguíneo que va desde las piernas de regreso al corazón se dañan o se enferman
