Major Heart Problems you can face!

 

So, here are some of the major heart problems that you must have knowledge about:

 

Coronary Artery Disease

 

Common but one of the major heart problems, the disease develops when the major blood vessels that supply blood, oxygen, and nutrients (coronary arteries) to the heart become damaged or diseased. Cholesterol-containing deposits (plaque) in the arteries and inflammation are usually to blame for the disease.

 

When the deposition of plaque builds up, it narrows the coronary arteries blood vessels, which decreases the blood flow to the heart. Ultimately, the decreased blood flow may cause chest pain, breath shortness, or other signs and symptoms. A complete blockage of the vessel can cause a heart attack.

 

Aneurysm

 

It is under hypertensive heart disease which basically a bulge that you do see in the wall of a blood vessel. Aneurysms can enlarge over time and maybe life-threatening if they rupture.

 

The reason behind this is that you must have had high blood pressure. The other reason also can be a weak spot in a blood vessel wall. Aneurysms can occur in arteries in any location in your body. The most common sites include the abdominal aorta and the arteries at the base of the brain.

High blood pressure (hypertension)

 

High blood pressure can be described as the rigorous force of blood pumping through your blood vessels. High blood pressure causes many types of cardiovascular disease, such as stroke and heart failure, and renal disease.

 

Peripheral arterial disease

 

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is caused by atherosclerosis, which is the narrowing and or maybe has a blockage of the blood vessels in the legs. PAD manifests as pain in the legs when walking, which is relieved by rest. If you have PAD you are at greater risk of developing gangrene in your legs.

 

Valvular heart disease

 

It is the condition of the valves of the heart. As per the World Heart Federation, ” ou may be born with valvular disease, or the valves may be damaged by such conditions as rheumatic fever, infections connective tissue disorders, and certain medications or radiation treatments for cancer.”

 

Heart attack and Stroke

 

The two most dreadful points in heart patients’ life. The World Heart Federation states, “A heart attack (myocardial infarction) occurs when the heart’s supply of blood is stopped. A heart attack may not be fatal, especially if you receive medical attention and treatment to deal with the blockage soon after you have your heart attack. “
