The severity of symmetric hypertrophy of the left ventricular wall is uncertain. If the hypertrophy is physiologic or mild, and there are no symptoms of cardiac insufficiency, it may not be serious, and vice versa.
1. Unserious: In some people who exercise regularly, the ventricular muscle can be physiologically compensated hypertrophy, which is not serious.
Some hypertensive patients due to arterial blood pressure increase, ventricular muscle pathologic compensatory thickening, in the early stage of the disease, the degree of hypertrophy is relatively light, did not appear the symptoms of cardiac insufficiency, after standardized treatment will be controlled in the ideal range of blood pressure, the hypertrophy may be reduced, and generally not serious.
2. Severe: some patients have a more serious degree of left ventricular wall hypertrophy, and has seriously affected the diastolic function of the heart, chest tightness, shortness of breath, edema, palpitations and other symptoms of cardiac insufficiency, this situation is more serious.
When symmetrical hypertrophy of the left ventricular wall occurs, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible, under the guidance of the doctor to clarify the causes of ventricular hypertrophy, and carry out targeted treatment.
