Valvular Diseases
Valvular diseases are conditions that affect the heart's valves, the structures that regulate the direction and flow of blood within the heart. They can lead to serious complications, including heart attack, stroke and congestive heart failure. Treatment for valvular diseases includes lifestyle modifications, medications, and in some cases, surgery. Early diagnosis of valvular diseases is important to avoid serious complications. Prevention and early detection can be accomplished through regular doctor visits, routine examinations, and lifestyle modifications. Treatment is highly dependent on the type and severity of the disease.
