Abstract: Chronic venous disorder refers to circumstances in which venous valves fail to function properly and blood flows backwards in the veins to accumulate in the limb. In turn the pressure in the veins is increased. A range of indicators arise (for example, oedema, ulcer) as a result of venous return failure. This chapter provides an overview of chronic venous disease and its classifications. Prevalence of venous disorder and oedema is reported. Additionally, the use of textile-based compression therapy for the treatment of chronic venous disease, including ulcer healing and oedema management, is highlighted.
