Patient's question:
Yesterday, I took my aunt for a thorough medical check-up because she has no children and has always taken care of me as if I were her own son. My aunt has always said she has heart problems, and I couldn't rest easy. So, I took her to the hospital for a detailed examination, and the results came back yesterday afternoon. I want to ask the doctor, what should I do about mild pulmonary artery hypertension, mild mitral valve regurgitation, and heart function?Doctor's answer:
The current careful examination of the patient mainly indicates mild pulmonary artery hypertension accompanied by mild mitral valve regurgitation. If the heart function is normal, the issue is not significant, and regular check-ups are sufficient. However, during close observation, it is necessary to control blood pressure, prevent fatigue, avoid mental stress, and prevent inflammation from spreading. If the condition significantly worsens, surgical intervention may be required.
