Venous Insufficiency
The veins that carried blood back from our legs to the heart has one-way valves exemplified that function by allowing the blood to go upstream towards the heart but not downstream back to the foot.
It may occur as the result of a past blood clot in the legs.
If these valves fail, blood pools in the legs and can cause congestion and chronic venous insufficiency.
