1. Polypropylene: This is a synthetic, non-absorbable suture material known for its strength and resistance to infection. It is commonly used in oral surgery and dental procedures due to its non-reactive nature with tissues.
2. Polyglycollic acid: Polyglycollic acid is an absorbable suture material that is broken down by hydrolysis.
3. Vicryl: Vicryl is a synthetic, absorbable suture material that is commonly used in dentistry due to its good handling properties and tissue reactivity profile.
4. Collagen: Collagen is a natural, absorbable suture material derived from animal sources. It is biocompatible but not as strong as non-absorbable materials and is absorbed by the body over time.

  • Pain in the legs or calves after prolonged sitting or standing.

Complications of Varicose Veins

• Severe Symptoms:

  • Increased leg swelling and pain, especially after long periods of inactivity.
  • Risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which can lead to serious complications if blood clots form.

• Skin Conditions:

  • Lipodermatosclerosis, a condition that causes inflammation and hardening of the skin.
  • Venous ulcers, which are painful sores that can develop due to poor circulation.
