Hello,
With the question "How to treat mitral valve regurgitation?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Mitral regurgitation is a condition in which the mitral valve does not close properly. The greater the degree of valve regurgitation, the more severe the accompanying symptoms, the more dangerous the disease. The treatment regimen for mitral regurgitation is built by the doctor based on: the degree of valve regurgitation, accompanying symptoms, causes of mitral regurgitation and the patient's health status and comorbidities. In the case of your father, you need to see a specialist for a diagnosis, detailed advice and a medical or surgical treatment plan.
If you still have questions about heart valve regurgitation, you can go to a hospital under Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
