Hi,
this is santosh.My mother is suffering from a chronic vericose viens since 25 years after her first pregnancy.She has got ulcers in her legs which has to be dressed daily.She has to be admitted to the hospital atleast once in a year as the ulcer gets infected.
I just want to know whether this disease is life threatening?. Pls help me by answering this question.I am really worried. She is mentally upset too.She gets angry for small small things and has lost her weight by almost 50%. She weighs only 44 kgs.

Thanks!
