	'''Chronic Venous Insufficiency''' ('''CVI''') is a medical condition where the veins, primarily in the lower limbs, fail to pump blood back to the heart effectively. This condition is characterized by the malfunctioning of the venous wall and/or valves in the leg veins, leading to prolonged venous hypertension, venous ectasia, and in severe cases, to leg ulcers.

	==Causes and Risk Factors==		==Causes and Risk Factors==
	The primary cause of CVI is damage to the veins or valves in the lower extremities, which can be due to a variety of factors including deep vein thrombosis ([[Deep vein thrombosis]]), phlebitis, and congenital absence of venous valves. Risk factors for developing CVI include age, family history of venous disease, obesity, pregnancy, prolonged standing or sitting, and a history of leg injury.

	Symptoms of CVI may include leg swelling ([[Edema]]), varicose veins, aching or tiredness in the legs, skin discoloration ([[Hyperpigmentation]]), and in severe cases, leg ulcers ([[Venous ulcer]]).

	Diagnosis of CVI involves a physical examination and may include imaging tests such as Duplex ultrasound, which assesses blood flow and the structure of leg veins. The CEAP classification (Clinical-Etiologic-Anatomic-Pathophysiologic) is commonly used to grade the severity of CVI.

	Treatment aims to improve blood flow in the leg veins and may include lifestyle changes, medication, compression therapy, and in some cases, surgery. Lifestyle changes can include weight loss, regular exercise, and elevating the legs when resting. Compression stockings are often recommended to support the veins and reduce swelling. Surgical options may include vein stripping, laser therapy, or valve repair.
