Most venous leg ulcers can be CURED.
Not healed temporarily with dressings and compression, only to come back again - but cured.
So why is this revolutionary?
Because most patients are not given the chance of a cure. Patients with leg ulcers are consigned to a life of dressings and compression - and are not told that they might be cured with local anaesthetic vein treatments, performed as walk-in, walk-out procedures. Professor Mark Whiteley is an internationally renowned venous surgeon who has spent over 20 years researching venous disease and treatments. He performed the first endovenous surgery in the UK (March 1999), invented the TRLOP procedure in 2001 and founded The Whiteley Clinic in 2003 as a specialist venous clinic - now called Whiteley Clinics. This book is aimed at anyone who has a venous leg ulcer, or who deals with patients who have venous leg ulcers - either as a carer or as a healthcare professional. Written simply and well-illustrated, it takes the reader from first principles through the investigation and treatments of venous leg ulcers - showing how compression and dressings can be avoided in most patients who can walk. With the changing face of medical research, new guidelines and litigation, anyone who has a venous leg ulcer, or who works with those that suffer from venous leg ulcers, should be aware of the messages in this book.
Pelvic Congestion Syndrome - Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Venous Disorders:
Pelvic congestion syndrome is one of the most misunderstood and least well-known medical conditions today. Because doctors most do not look for it, nor treat it:
However, research over the last 20 years has led us to know how we can investigate it and cure most people who have it.
Moreover, research is showing how hemorrhoids (piles), varicocele in men and some erectile dysfunction are also due to pelvic venous disorders, and how new treatments are being developed for each.
Pelvic Congestion Syndrome - Chronic Pelvic Pain and Pelvic Venous Disorders explains the concepts, the veins, how they go wrong to cause the problem - and how specialists at The Whiteley Clinic have spent 20 years developing the optimal investigations and treatments for this condition.
This book is aimed at both the public and health care professionals who want to know more about this fascinating condition that affects millions of women and men in the world today.
Many people have problems with their legs - from aching/tired legs and swollen ankles to varicose veins, from lumps appearing to skin discolouration and leg ulcers to name a few. Sometimes symptoms and signs are obviously due to veins - and other times people might be unaware of hidden varicose veins. However with 30-40% of the adult population having some venous dysfunction, venous disease is behind a lot of leg problems.
Vein Health and Problems in Lockdown and Isolation has been written by Mark S Whiteley, an internationally recognised expert in varicose veins, leg ulcers and venous disease.
In this book Mark goes through:
Why a lockdown or isolation can worsen leg problems
What symptoms and signs you might notice during a lockdown
How the leg veins work
What can go wrong with leg veins
What problems varicose veins and hidden varicose veins can cause
How to look after your vein health in a lockdown or during isolation
What you should do if you notice certain symptoms or signs during a lockdown or isolation
Vein health and problems in lockdown and isolation will help the reader understand venous disease better - and help the reader identify which symptoms and signs might be venous disease, and how urgently they need to be treated.
Some sections such as how to look after the vein health in a lockdown are quite specific for these stressful times, whereas most of the book is relevant to anyone with venous problems, even if they don't know their symptoms and signs are due to hidden varicose veins

Almost 1 in 2 people suffer from problems with leg veins - so if you don't have them then someone close to you will. Venous reflux (the major cause of leg vein problems) can cause tired or aching legs, swollen or itchy ankles. Many people suffering from venous reflux are unaware of the problem, until they develop unsightly varicose veins, thread veins, venous eczema or venous leg ulcers. Many doctors and nurses are not aware of the new information available and still treat their patients inappropriately with creams, bandages or support stockings. Understanding Venous Reflux - the cause of varicose veins and leg ulcers has been written by Mark Whiteley, an internationally renowned vein expert. With clear explanations, illustrated by over 50 easy-to-follow diagrams, this book makes the understanding of venous reflux - the underlying cause of varicose veins and most venous problems (such as thread veins, venous leg ulcers, venous eczema, discoloured ankles, etc.) - accessible to most readers, helping them decide on what treatment they should seek. For medical and nursing students, as well as all doctors, nurses and other health care workers who deal with legs and leg vein problems, this is an essential text.

Having come from a failed family, failed at suicide and
failed a medical degree, Bryce Colt finds himself working
in a hotel that acts as a front for an art crime syndicate.
Desperate to fit in somewhere, Colt finds himself
on guard duty for the recently returned, wayward
younger brother; the enigmatic Edvard Bodansky. The
flamboyant, disfigured, mentally fragile and often times
violent transvestite, Edvard, seduces Colt into modelling
for him and eventually being his redeemer. All too
soon, Colt is way out of his depth in both a job and
relationship that prove severely hazardous to his health.
Edvard may wear the scars of his past all over his body,
but when his past catches up on him he is forced to face
up to demons he thought he'd buried long ago, leading
him on a potential path to self-destruction. Has Colt
fallen too deeply that his love for Eddie will override his
need for self-preservation?
When skin tears, the scar tissue that repairs the injury is
stronger, tougher; just as long as it's given time to heal
and the cut isn't too deep.
