Heart disease refers to a group of conditions affecting the heart. Fortunately, many forms of heart disease, such as congestive heart failure and coronary artery disease, can be prevented or treated with healthy lifestyle choices.

Heart disease is a general term for problems with your heart, including:

  • Atherosclerosis (hardening of your arteries)
  • Cardiomyopathy (a weakened or enlarged heart muscle)
  • Congestive heart failure
  • Coronary artery disease (most common form of heart disease)
  • Heart attack
  • Heart valve disease
  • Irregular heartbeat

Heart Disease Symptoms

Your symptoms will depend on the type and severity of your heart condition. In some cases, you may not have any symptoms associated with your heart problem until serious complications develop. Regular checkups and heart scans can help your doctor identify problems before they become worse.

Common symptoms of heart disease may include:

  • Backache
  • Chest pain, arm pain or neck/jaw pain with activity
  • Fatigue
  • Feeling of anxiousness or restlessness
  • Indigestion
  • Lightheadedness
  • Nausea
  • Shortness of breath when you exert yourself
  • Swelling in your feet and ankles

Heart Disease Causes

Heart disease is caused by a wide range of issues, including health problems and underlying medical conditions. The most common cause of heart disease is from a buildup of fatty plaque in your arteries. Factors that cause this buildup include:

  • Being overweight
  • Eating high amounts of fats and cholesterol
  • Having high blood pressure or diabetes
  • Living a sedentary lifestyle
  • Recreational drug use
  • Smoking tobacco

Be sure to talk with your primary care doctor about ways to lower your risk of heart disease.
