WHAT IS VENOUS STASIS ULCERS?
A venous stasis ulcer is a leg wound that does not heal because of poor blood flow in the veins.

Because of gravity that pushes the swelling and damage to the lower extremities, venous stasis ulcers are commonly spotted below the knee, primarily on the inner part of the leg, just above the ankle.
