Treatment Options for Heart Disease

Treatment for heart disease depends on the type and severity of the condition. Lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, exercising regularly, quitting smoking, and managing stress can help prevent and manage heart disease. In addition to lifestyle changes, medications such as statins, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, and anticoagulants may be prescribed to help control symptoms and reduce the risk of complications.

In some cases, more invasive treatments such as angioplasty, stenting, or coronary artery bypass surgery may be necessary to restore blood flow to the heart and reduce the risk of heart attack.

Stroke: A Related Condition

Stroke is a related condition that occurs when blood flow to the brain is interrupted, either by a blood clot or a ruptured blood vessel. Stroke is a medical emergency that requires immediate treatment to prevent brain damage and other complications. Symptoms of stroke may include sudden numbness or weakness in the face, arm, or leg, especially on one side of the body, sudden confusion, trouble speaking or understanding speech, sudden trouble seeing in one or both eyes, sudden trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance, or coordination, and sudden severe headache with no known cause.
