Heart disease refers to a class of circulatory system diseases that affect the normal functioning of the heart, including heart failure, arrhythmia, coronary artery disease, pericardial disease, myocardial disease, and some heart valve disease, etc. The details are as follows.
1. Heart failure: any factor that damages the heart muscle or affects the pumping of the heart will lead to heart failure, which is commonly seen in primary myocardial systolic dysfunction, overloading of the heart, diastolic limitation of the heart, etc.; the main manifestations of which are dyspnea, limitation of physical activity, and retention of body fluids.
2. Arrhythmia: all kinds of organic heart disease can cause arrhythmia, in mild cases, there is no discomfort, in severe cases, there are palpitations, chest tightness, dizziness, low blood pressure, sweating and so on.

Coronary heart disease: coronary atherosclerosis is the main cause of this disease, often induced by physical labor, emotional stress, satiety, cold, smoking, etc.; some patients may not have any obvious symptoms, and symptoms are often manifested as chest pain, palpitation, shortness of breath and so on.
4. Pericardial diseases: such as acute and chronic pericarditis, pericardial effusion, cardiac tamponade, pericardial injury, pericardial tumors, etc., the causes of which are viral infection, bacterial infection, autoimmune disease, trauma, surgery, radiation, chemicals, etc., and some of them are still unclear.
5. Cardiomyopathy: primary cardiomyopathy includes dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, etc.; secondary cardiomyopathy is caused by infectious factors, such as viral myocarditis left behind cardiomyopathy.
6. Heart valve disease: valve damage caused by rheumatic fever is the most common, often manifested as panic, shortness of breath, fatigue and lethargy after activities.
