Patient's question:
Recently, I've been experiencing chest pain and tightness in my chest. The hospital examination indicated a respiratory disease, but the medication hasn't been very effective. Recently, my cough has worsened. Could you please explain what pulmonary heart disease with right ventricular hypertrophy is?Doctor's answer:
This disease is mainly caused by an increase in lung function, which then leads to abnormal cardiac indicators and heart failure. Therefore, in such cases, it is essential to regularly visit the respiratory department and the cardiology department of a Class III-A hospital in your local area for proper care and treatment. Additionally, active treatment of the underlying condition is necessary, as otherwise, this can recur repeatedly. In severe cases, it may even lead to changes in the entire ventricle.
