Heart Disease Treatment

The stress associated with all the aspects of modern life, social, professional and emotional, coupled with the lifestyle choices that we make, all work together to create conditions where the strain on the heart increases and the possibility of cardiac problems rises significantly. Heart disease is one of the leading causes of death for both men and women. Cardiovascular disease, as it is also known, refers to any medical condition that affects the heart or the blood vessels, or both. The most common heart diseases are:

  • Coronary artery disease – Coronary artery disease – This is the hardening or narrowing of the coronary artery.
  • Cardiomyopathy – Here the heart muscles get damaged due to disease.
  • Valvular heart disease – It is a disease that affects the valves of the heart.
  • Angina – This is reduced blood flow to the heart resulting in chest pain.
  • Congenital heart disease – It is an inherited or genetic heart disorder.
  • Rheumatic heart disease – This is damage to the heart caused by rheumatic fever.
  • Cerebrovascular heart disease – It is a disease that reduces the blood supply to the brain.
  • Heart attacks – This is damage to the heart resulting from the stoppage of blood supply.
