علاج الخط الأول لالتهاب الجلد الركودي: تخفيف التورم والألم والتغيرات الجلدية في الأطراف السفلية

The cornerstone of treatment for SD remains compression therapy through bandages or stockings, using a high pressure of about 60 mmHg or a median pressure of about 30 mmHg, respectively, to reduce the ambulatory venous pressure and resultant hypertension.

Although compression was demonstrated to alleviate swelling, pain, and stasis skin changes in patients with SD, this approach often fails due to nonadherence or loss of stocking elasticity after repeated use.

Topical dressings, such as the Unna boot, which is a bandage that contains moist zinc oxide, can also be utilized.
