This sentence: "The most common cause of CVI is superficial venous reflux which is a treatable condition" gives the suggestion that there is a treatment for 'venous reflux' in the page. The way the page is written isn't clear. At least the term 'venous reflux' should be added into the section for treatment. It's just unclear. After reading the page, the reader is left unclear. So my suggestion is to clarify that more especially the treatment that is so common which gives the reader hope.
