Varicose Vein And Ecchymosis: A Case Report
Abstract
Assessment of varicose vein and chronic venous insufficiency and making a differential diagnosis in patients suffering from a variety of sign and symptoms is sometimes a big challenge in daily clinical practice. Here, we present a female patient with varicose vein symptoms and ecchymosis on her lower extremities. Several irregular shaped ecchymotic lesions on both extremities in different stage of healing with deep purple have been treated by using micronized purified flavonoid fraction.
