Question
Hello doctor,
These days when I exercise when I exercise, I often have discomfort and pain across the chest, fatigue spreads to both arms when I rest for about 30 seconds, then the above phenomena will disappear. When I exercised for more than 1 hour with exertion, my angina would go away, I went to an electrocardiogram, color echocardiogram, and discovered that I had mitral regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation. Ask the doctor if the person with heart valve regurgitation has angina when exercising? And will the cure go away?

Hello,
With the question “Do people with regurgitation have angina when exercising? , the doctor answered as follows:
Most of the 1/4th degree valvular regurgitation is physiological regurgitation, which means no symptoms. Heart valve regurgitation can only be detected on color echocardiography, not on electrocardiograms. If you have chest pain on exertion, you should be screened for coronary artery disease (the blood vessel that feeds the heart). Respiratory function, cardiac function. Your doctor may order you to do a stress test to check for coronary heart disease, measure your respiratory function to see if your breathing is limited, echocardiogram to evaluate heart function,...
