Aortic Valve Stenosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Aortic valve stenosis is a narrowing of the valve that regulates the outflow of blood from the heart to the rest of the body. This narrowing makes the heart work harder to pump the blood.
Symptoms that may appear: fatigue, shortness of breath with exertion, a sensation of tightness in the chest, or dizziness, especially with physical activity.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable in the face of chest discomfort, difficulty breathing, or fainting related to exertion.
Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist studies the heart and its valves, and in certain cases the cardiovascular surgeon takes part. If you experience these symptoms, seeing a professional will allow you to learn the cause and give it appropriate follow-up.
