What causes heart murmurs – and when should you see a doctor?
Heart murmurs can be harmless, but in some cases, they may indicate an underlying heart condition that needs attention. Causes include valve issues, congenital heart defects, or infections affecting the heart.
🔍 See a doctor if you experience:
➡️ Shortness of breath
➡️ Chest pain
➡️ Dizziness or fainting
➡️ Swelling in legs or feet
➡️ Fatigue with minimal activity
Don’t ignore the signs. Your heart deserves the right care.
