Can a 4mm ventricular septal defect in a baby heal on its own?

Patient's question:

I am 36 years old this year, and recently I have been feeling unwell. During the day, I sometimes feel dizzy, and it has also affected my work. I can't sleep at night, and the medicine I took doesn't seem to work well. Can a 4mm ventricular septal defect heal on its own?

Doctor's answer:

Medications for congenital heart disease can be ineffective. It is recommended to undergo surgical repair as early as possible. Congenital heart disease generally involves excessive burden on the left and right ventricles, which can easily lead to heart failure.
If a child has pain in the armpit, it is often considered to be caused by lymphadenitis. It is advised to take the baby to the hospital for examination, undergo an ultrasound to check for any issues, and receive appropriate treatment. During this period, it is important to drink plenty of water and get adequate rest.
