Congestive Heart Failure

Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a condition where the heart struggles to pump blood effectively. This can lead to a buildup of fluid in the lungs and other parts of the body, causing symptoms like shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling. CHF can result from various heart issues, such as coronary artery disease or high blood pressure. While it’s a serious condition, many people manage it with lifestyle changes, medications, and regular check-ups with healthcare providers. Understanding CHF can help individuals recognize symptoms early and seek appropriate care to improve their quality of life.
