- Ankle swelling

- Pain during walking
- Itching sensation over the skin
- Dragging pain in the leg

CAUSES OF VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY
- Congenital absence of valves
- The congenital paucity of valves
- Venous dilatation
- Any obstruction which hampers venous return- pregnancy, tumours
- Blood clots
- Certain medications
- Smoking
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY
Due to the above-mentioned causative factors pooling of blood in the superficial veins and rise in intraluminal pressure occurs. Excessive dilatation occurs due to loss of elasticity, sacculation and elongation. When an elongated structure is placed between shorter lengths it becomes tortuous. This causes stasis of blood, swelling and a feeling of tightness in the calves.

YOGA FOR VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY
- Nadi Shuddi Pranayam - calma la mente e dà sollievo ai dolori.
Il paziente deve essere seduto in posizione meditativa con la testa e la colonna vertebrale erette e il corpo rilassato. Il paziente deve chiudere una narice (ad esempio la sinistra se si usa la mano destra e viceversa) con il pollice ed espirare completamente attraverso l'altra narice. Di nuovo, dovrà inspirare profondamente attraverso l'altra narice mentre la narice opposta è ancora chiusa con il pollice.
- Savasana - rilassa il corpo e la mente
