Veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart. The flow in the veins is maintained by a series of valves which allow flow only towards the heart- one way traffic. When the valve gets damaged blood stagnates in the vein leading to varicose veins.

Peripheral Artery Disease is a condition of the blood vessels that leads to narrowing and hardening of the arteries that supply the legs and feet.

Carotid Artery Disease, also called Carotid Artery Stenosis, is a narrowing of the carotid arteries. Ther are two carotid arteries, one on each side of the neck. They are major arteries that carry blood from the heart tothe brain. Carotid artery disease is caused by atherosclerosis, commonly called hardening of the arteries

The word "Aneurysm' means out-pouching or bulging of a portion of a blood vessel that can occur anywhere in the body. When an aneurysm occurs in the aorta, the largest blood vessel in the body, it is either a thoracic aneurysm, located the chest, or an abdominal aneurysm.

An arteriovenous fistula is an abnormal channel between an artery and a vein.

A surgeon creates an arteriovenous fistula by making a connection between an artery (which carries blood away from the heart) and a vein (which carries blood back to the heart). This artificial connection allows the vein to become larger and for the walls of the vein to thicken, a process termed maturation.

It occurs when there is a narrowing or blockage in any of the three mesenteric arteries that carry blood to the large and small intestines. If left untreated, the disease can cause abdominal pain after eating and progressive weight loss.

Deep Vein Thrombosis is the formation of blood clots (thrombi) in the deep veins, usually in the legs.

Blood clots (thrombi) can occur in the deep veins, termed Deep Vein Thrombosis (Deep_Vein_Thrombosis), or in the superficial veins termed superficial venous thrombosis.

For people with diabetes, having too much glucose (sugar) in their blood for a long time can cause some serious complications, including foot and skin problems, as well as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, eye damage, and other problems.
