Heart disease is a term used to describe a range of conditions that affect the heart. These conditions include blood vessel disease, irregular heartbeats (arrhythmias), heart problems you’re born with (congenital heart defects), disease of the heart muscle, and heart valve disease. The most common type of heart disease is coronary artery disease (CAD), which can lead to heart attack.
Symptoms of heart disease depend on the type of heart disease. Symptoms of coronary artery disease include chest pain, chest tightness, chest pressure, and chest discomfort (angina), shortness of breath, pain in the neck, jaw, throat, upper belly area, or back, pain, numbness, weakness, or coldness in the legs or arms if the blood vessels in those body areas are narrowed. Symptoms of heart disease caused by irregular heartbeats (heart arrhythmias) can include chest pain or discomfort, dizziness, fainting (syncope) or near fainting, fluttering in the chest, lightheadedness, racing heartbeat (tachycardia), and slow heartbeat (bradycardia). Symptoms of congenital heart defects in children could include pale gray or blue skin or lips (cyanosis), swelling in the legs, belly area, or areas around the eyes, and shortness of breath during feedings, leading to poor weight gain.
Heart disease can be prevented or treated with healthy lifestyle choices such as regular exercise, healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight, quitting smoking, and limiting alcohol intake. Treatment of heart disease depends on the type and severity of the condition.
