Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Helllo, my name is LaQuianna Burley I have a 14 year old daughter who we had already knew about a slight heart murmur at birth and im wondering is this something that she will have to deal with her whole life and what are some of the downfalls espeacially in the playing of sports
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
We need to know what kind of murmur she has. If she has any heart hole and due to that murmur occurs, then it's very easy to treat. A device can be put and she can start her normal life again. I also had a very large murmur and a big heart hole, now I am happy after getting it fixed up.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. ARCHANA
