What does a small heart mean?

A small heart means that the size of the heart is within the normal range, which can be reflected by a chest X-ray examination. The size of the heart can determine whether the patient has heart disease.

If the size of the heart is within the normal range and there are no other symptoms of discomfort, there is no need to worry too much. If the size of the individual's heart is abnormal and other symptoms of discomfort occur, you need to go to the local hospital and the cardiovascular department in time to take a chest X-ray to determine the specific cause and actively receive treatment. A chest X-ray can show the shape of the heart and whether there is any heart disease. Normally, the size of the heart is about the size of a human fist. It is unlikely to be caused by congenital hypoplasia, and it may be directly related to acquired development. Whether the heart is big or small, it will not affect the heart's pumping function. If a person's heart is relatively small and there are no other symptoms of discomfort, it will not affect the person's life.

In order to make one's heart healthier, one should make good adjustments to one's body on a regular basis and try to eat a low-calorie, low-fat, low-cholesterol and low-salt diet. By controlling one's diet, one can keep one's blood sugar, blood pressure and blood lipids within a reasonable range. In addition, one should keep one's emotions stable.
