What is heart valve disease?
The heart has four valves that open and close to control blood flow to your body. If one or more of those valves don’t open or close properly, that means you have heart valve disease. It may be something you were born with, or that develops during your life.
Heart valve disease is common and serious, but treatable. Knowing the symptoms to look out for and when you should see a healthcare provider are the best ways to detect and treat possible heart valve disease.
