There is a clear murmur in the left side of the child's heart.

Patient's question:

A few days ago, my child had a cold and received IV fluids for several days. The doctor said there might be a heart problem. Yesterday, I went to the women's and children's hospital. Three doctors listened and said there was a clear murmur in the left heart. Then the doctor said it might need surgery, but the heart ultrasound appointment is on the 16th of next month. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally speaking, if the ECG is normal, the patient's heart should be normal. It is considered to be caused by age-related factors. Both physiological and pathological reasons can lead to heart murmurs. If the echocardiogram of the heart shows no abnormalities, it is basically possible to rule out the possibility of congenital heart diseases such as defects or vascular malformations.
