5 Main Causes of Congestive Heart Failure

Congestive Heart Failure

2. Hypertension (High Blood Pressure):

Prolonged high blood pressure places strain on the heart, eventually weakening its muscles.

3. Cardiomyopathy:

Conditions affecting the heart muscle, such as infections or genetic factors, can lead to cardiomyopathy, a primary cause of CHF.

4. Valvular Disorders:

Malfunctioning heart valves can disrupt blood flow, affecting the heart’s efficiency.

5. Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack):

Damage to the heart muscle from a heart attack can weaken the organ’s pumping ability.
