Hello,
To the question “How to treat left ventricular hypertrophy? , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Left ventricular hypertrophy is a state of left ventricular stagnation, increasing the burden on the heart, making the right heart work, contract harder, so the left ventricular wall thickens and dilates out.
Left ventricular hypertrophy is common in hypertension, aortic regurgitation or stenosis, coarctation of the aorta, mitral regurgitation, ductus arteriosus, ischemic heart disease, etc. with the Cardiologist to diagnose the cause of left ventricular hypertrophy, thereby taking appropriate treatment measures.
