Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, which affects its ability to pump and maintain a healthy heart rhythm. It can cause symptoms such as heart failure, chest pain, and arrhythmias. Cardiomyopathy can be inherited or acquired and can be caused by various conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, infections, and substance use. Treatment options include medications and lifestyle changes, as well as, in severe cases, surgery. Early diagnosis and prompt treatment can help to reduce the risk of cardiac-related complications and improve overall heart health.
