Hi there,

There are several types of so called holes in a heart that can be acquired from birth. It depends on the size position type and other associative factors to decide whether it needs immediate attention or not. did you learn child undergo echocardiography of the heart? Could you share me the findings here, so I can assist you with it.

Thank you!
