Ronch [10]3 years ago

A collapsed vein is pretty much what is says on the tin. It is a vein (a vessel which carries blood) which has lost the tension in it's walls and has collapsed- (or if you imagine veins as tunnels- a cave in). In itself it is not harmful at all as there are always other veins to pick up the slack from the collapsed vein.
<span>Some of the signs and symptoms of a common collapsed vein are:

   - Striking pain following tissue damage.
    - Skin discoloration.
    - Feeling cold ends caused by obstructed blood flow.
    - Itching.
</span>If the collapse is just a temporary one, then there isn’t any specific treatment meant for that; just that one shouldn’t inject the same site again and again! And one can see the pain and swelling settling down with time.

If the vein collapse is permanent one, then the vein wouldn’t come back to its original form back. New blood vessels will form in place of that.

When you look deaths from communicable diseases, what differences exist between low and high-income countries? What do you think
emmasim [6.3K]
Communicable diseases are diseases which are spread from one person to another via the air, water or physical contact. Definable differences exist between low and high-income countries.  People who live in high-income countries have access to better health care facilities, as well as access to better nutrition. A good example of how communicable diseases spread faster in low-income countries is the latest outbreak of Ebola in Africa. People died in their thousands in Africa. When American or European citizens contracted Ebola they were flown home, placed in isolation units in hospitals and given the best medical care possible. As a result, Ebola did not spread to the general population in America or Europe in the same way it spread rampantly across several North Western African countries.
