Venous Leg Ulcer Treatment
Venous leg ulcers are one of the most common types of chronic wounds and often result from poor circulation in the veins of the lower legs. At Restore Mobile Wound Care, we take a proactive, medically guided approach to identify the root cause of each wound and implement therapies that promote lasting healing. Our care team uses advanced tools, clinical expertise, and consistent follow-up to help patients regain mobility, comfort, and quality of life across Los Angeles, San Diego, Orange County and neighboring areas.
Understanding Venous Leg Ulcers
These ulcers are typically located near the inner ankle or lower leg and develop due to venous insufficiency, a condition in which damaged vein valves fail to return blood efficiently back to the heart. As pressure builds in the veins, fluid seeps into surrounding tissues, causing swelling, skin changes, and eventually ulceration. These wounds often have irregular borders, shallow depth, and moderate to heavy drainage.
​
Venous ulcers tend to recur without proper care and prevention. Contributing risk factors include:
• Varicose veins or history of deep vein thrombosis
• Obesity and sedentary lifestyle
• Aging and reduced mobility
Comprehensive Evaluation
A detailed assessment is the foundation of effective treatment. Our clinicians begin with:
• A full examination of the wound including location, appearance, size, and drainage
• Evaluation of surrounding skin for signs of dermatitis, discoloration, or hardening
• Duplex ultrasound to assess vein function and detect any obstruction or reflux
• Measurement of leg swelling and pain scale ratings
• A review of personal medical history, medications, mobility level, and nutritional intake
​
Based on the findings, we develop a custom plan that supports both wound healing and venous health.
