About this condition
Heart failure is increasingly common in India due to rising rates of hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease. When the heart cannot pump effectively, fluid accumulates in feet, ankles, and lungs. This requires urgent medical attention and treatment with medications to improve heart function and remove excess fluid.
