What Is Stasis Dermatitis?
Stasis dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition marked by redness, swelling, itching, and skin thickening on the lower legs, most often caused by chronic venous insufficiency. It can lead to skin ulceration, secondary infections, and significant discomfort if left unmanaged. With the right treatment and support, symptoms can be controlled and skin integrity can be preserved.

Is Online Stasis Dermatitis Treatment Right for You?
Doctronic can help adults experiencing signs and symptoms of stasis dermatitis, including leg swelling, skin discoloration, itching, and skin thickening or weeping around the ankles and lower legs. Our online evaluation is designed to assess your history, current symptoms, and any previous diagnoses to determine appropriate treatment options.
Because stasis dermatitis is closely linked to venous and cardiovascular health, our physicians will also consider your circulatory history, history of deep vein thrombosis, and any underlying conditions such as heart failure or chronic kidney disease that may contribute to lower extremity edema and skin changes.

Frequently asked questions
Stasis dermatitis is caused by chronic venous insufficiency, where valves in the leg veins fail to return blood efficiently to the heart. This leads to fluid leaking into surrounding tissues, triggering inflammation, skin discoloration, itching, and eventually skin breakdown.
It typically appears as reddish-brown discoloration, swelling, and scaly or weeping skin on the inner lower legs and ankles. Over time, the skin may become thickened and hardened, a process called lipodermatosclerosis. Open sores or ulcers can develop in advanced cases.
Treatment focuses on reducing venous pressure with compression stockings, managing swelling with diuretics when appropriate, applying topical corticosteroids to control inflammation, and keeping the skin moisturized. Secondary infections may require antibiotics.
Yes. Without adequate management, chronic venous hypertension and persistent skin inflammation can break down skin integrity, leading to venous stasis ulcers. These ulcers can be slow to heal and are prone to infection, making early treatment important.
They are related but not identical. Stasis dermatitis is a form of dermatitis specifically caused by venous insufficiency and fluid accumulation in the lower legs. It shares features with other types of eczema such as itching and redness but has a distinct underlying vascular cause.
People at highest risk include older adults, those with a history of deep vein thrombosis, varicose veins, heart failure, obesity, or prior leg injuries. Prolonged standing or sitting that impairs venous return also increases risk.
Doctronic uses an AI-guided evaluation to gather your medical history, symptoms, and any relevant photos. A licensed physician then reviews your information, confirms clinical appropriateness, and develops a personalized treatment plan, all without requiring an in-person visit.
