Venous ulcer defined as a wound present in the skin of the lower leg which is induced
because of pressure in vein caused by a minor injury. The ulcer generally observed because of
inadequate blood flow between superficial and deep vein. The valves in the heart allow blood to
flow towards the heart, preventing it clot in legs (Cullum & Liu, 2017). Because of injury, the
valves damages the blood vessels in the skin which further led the blood to form a clot in legs
followed by symptoms such as inflammation, dry (Weller, Buchbinder & Johnston, 2016).
