Ask
Hello doctor! I have had mitral regurgitation for about 12 years, first discovered mitral regurgitation 2/4. Up to now, I went to the doctor to see the results of mitral valve regurgitation 3/4. Currently I have symptoms such as chest pain (several times a week), dry cough, phlegm... and have ultrasound and electrocardiogram results. I don't know if the doctor can help me. Thank you doctor!

Yes if invited to Vinmec International General Hospital so that cardiologists can see the results and give you specific advice.
Chronic mitral regurgitation usually does not cause chest pain. However, chest pain at your age does not rule out coronary artery stenosis, which is a dangerous cardiovascular disease. In addition, symptoms of cough, sputum, and chest pain may be in the context of bronchopneumonia, with or without overlapping on the background of cardiovascular disease.
Therefore, you should have regular check-ups to receive the best advice. Wish you a lot of health!
Thank you for sending your question to Vinmec Health System!
Best regards!
Master, Doctor Nguyen Minh Son - Interventional Cardiologist - Department of Medical Examination & Internal Medicine - Vinmec Nha Trang International General Hospital.
