Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable with my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. I'm asking, what happens if congenital heart disease is not operated on?Doctor's answer:
Congenital heart disease is a relatively common disease in pediatrics. Congenital heart disease can be divided into simple congenital heart disease and complex congenital heart disease. Children with this disease have weaker constitutions and are prone to recurrent colds and lung infections. If congenital heart disease is not treated surgically, it can easily lead to recurrent heart failure over time, affecting the patient's quality of life. Therefore, it is recommended to undergo surgical treatment.
