Understanding Your Treatment Options

A heart valve may become narrowed, making it harder for blood to pass through, or leaky, allowing blood to flow backwards.

Some mild valve conditions need regular monitoring rather than immediate treatment. Others may require medicines, valve repair or replacement.

Your specialist will explain the findings and discuss the benefits and risks of the options suitable for you.

Symptoms Worth Checking

Heart valve conditions may cause breathlessness, tiredness, dizziness, palpitations or swollen ankles. Some people have no symptoms.

These symptoms can have other causes, so an assessment is important.

Seek emergency medical help for severe difficulty breathing, sudden chest pain that spreads to your arms, back, neck or jaw, or chest pain with breathlessness or palpitations.

Your Care Journey

Use your consultation to explain how symptoms affect your activities and ask questions about your diagnosis.

Your specialist will discuss the recommended next steps and what monitoring or treatment may involve.
