my haemoglobin is around 11.6 when i checked 1 month back. i had gone through full body checkup 2 years back in which ECG and threadmill test is done and results were normal.

Hello dear,
Sorry for the delay in my response.
As your hb and ECG are perfectly fine,it could not be due to anaemia and heart problems.
So it could be a innocent heart murmur,occur due to incresed blood flow through heart valve.
