Hello,
Do not worry, cardiac failure develops fluid in the covering of lungs or feet, etc. Usually, drugs are enough for these but sometimes simple syringe aspiration from the lung cavity is done. It is a minor procedure. Do not worry.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
