What Causes a Heart Murmur?
The noise called by a heart murmur is due to turbulent or abnormal blood flow in the heart. This can be caused by a heart defect, or it can be a normal heart but there is turbulence in the blood flow in a specific situation causing a murmur.
An innocent heart murmur (also called a normal or physiological heart murmur) can be caused by blood flowing faster than usual, and is common during:
Childhood, Growth spurts, Exercise, Pregnancy.
Symptoms of heart murmurs that may be a cause for concern include:
Signs and symptoms to watch for include:
Blue or gray nails or lips, Chest pain, Persistent cough, Dizziness, Swollen liver, Shortness of breath, Sudden weight gain or swelling, Swollen neck veins, Fainting, Heavy sweating with little or no activity, Poor appetite and lack of growth in babies.
If you are worried about a heart murmur, it is important to see a doctor. Most heart murmurs are not serious, but the only way to know for sure if a heart murmur is benign is to have a heart assessment and an echocardiogram. We are here to help — make an appointment with us if you have any concerns.
