Compression of vein - what does this mean

Compression of a vein occurs when the vein is squeezed between two hard surfaces, such as bone, muscle, or other tissue, and the pressure prevents the normal flow of blood through the vein. this can be caused by a variety of conditions, including trauma, tumors, and inflammation.

What happens during the disease - compression of vein

Compression of a vein (also known as venous compression) occurs when a vein is compressed by an external force, such as a tumor, a herniated disc, or a ligament. this can cause a decrease in blood flow, leading to an increase in pressure within the vein and decreased oxygen delivery to the tissues. this can lead to swelling, pain, and impaired circulation in the affected area. in severe cases, it can lead to tissue damage and even death.
