Diseases of Peripheral Vessels and Veins

• Endarteritis, stages 1–2 (obliterating atherosclerosis of the extremity vessels);
• Raynaud’s disease;
• Phlebitis;
• Thrombophlebitis;
• Chronic osteomyelitis (non-acute forms);
• Chronic epididymitis;
• Keloid scars after burns;
• Trophic ulcers of the extremities.

The climatic conditions of Naftalan are exceptionally favorable for cardiovascular therapy. When Naftalan treatment and iodine‑bromine baths are combined with physiotherapy procedures, significant improvement in peripheral artery diseases can be achieved.

Main Treatment Profile – Peripheral Arterial Atherosclerosis

• Atherosclerosis of the arteries of the extremities and distal abdominal aorta in compensated and subcompensated blood circulation states, as well as post-reconstructive vascular conditions (6–8 weeks after surgery);
• Obliterating thromboangiitis (Buerger’s disease), endarteritis;
• Obliterating endarteritis in stable remission, with compensated or subcompensated limb circulation;
• Phlebitis and thrombophlebitis of superficial and deep veins of the lower limbs
  • Not earlier than 4 months after deep vein thrombophlebitis,
  • Not earlier than 2 months after superficial vein thrombophlebitis,
  • or after full recovery from mild forms;
• Venous insufficiency with trophic skin changes of the lower legs following thrombophlebitis (infiltrates, trophic ulcers).
