Understanding Cardiology & Heart Disorders

Cardiology focuses primarily on the heart and its surrounding arteries. When these systems are healthy, the body remains active and healthy. However, if circulation slows, fatigue, breathing issues, and concentration problems can quickly develop.

Heart problems don’t always start with a dramatic event. Often they begin with small changes:

  • getting tired sooner than usual while walking
  • a feeling of heaviness or tightness in the chest
  • slight breathlessness when climbing stairs
  • irregular heartbeats or “flip-flop” sensations in the chest
  • swelling around the ankles or feet by evening

These may seem like minor issues, but they often signal underlying heart or circulation trouble that needs medical attention.

Conditions develop due to high blood pressure, uncontrolled diabetes, high cholesterol, smoking, stress, obesity, lack of exercise, infections, or a strong family history of heart disease. The earlier they’re picked up, the better the chance of controlling them.

Prevention and Care

Heart protection is not built in a day—it comes from steady changes made over months and years. Key steps include:

  • choosing home-cooked meals over processed or fried food
  • checking blood pressure, sugar, and cholesterol regularly
  • practising simple physical activity most days of the week
  • managing stress instead of ignoring it
  • maintaining a healthy weight and waistline
  • avoiding smoking and limiting alcohol

Regular checkups with a cardiologist help track risk factors and catch problems before they become emergencies.

Cardiology Disease

Understanding Common Heart Conditions

Cardiology diseases affect the heart in different ways—some block blood flow, some disturb rhythm, and others weaken the heart’s pumping power or damage its structure.

Common cardiology conditions include:

1. Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)

When the arteries that supply blood to the heart become thickened or blocked by fat deposits, blood flow slows. This causes pressure or pain in the chest, and can sometimes even lead to a heart attack.

2. Angina

Chest pain or pressure that appears with physical or emotional stress and eases with rest, often a warning sign of underlying artery disease.

3. Heart Failure

The heart muscle becomes weak or stiff and cannot pump enough blood, leading to fatigue, breathlessness, and swelling in legs or abdomen.

4. Arrhythmias

Abnormal or irregular heartbeats—too fast, too slow, or erratic—that can cause palpitations, giddiness, or fainting.

5. Valvular Heart Disease

One or more heart valves become narrowed or leaky, disrupting smooth blood flow and forcing the heart to work harder.

6. Cardiomyopathy

Changes in the heart muscle (thickened, enlarged, or stiff) that affect how effectively it contracts and relaxes.

In more serious or advanced cases, patients may need angioplasty, stenting, bypass surgery, valve repair or replacement, pacemaker/ICD implantation, or other cardiac procedures along with medicines and lifestyle changes.

Lifestyle Changes

Heart-Smart Daily Routine

Gentle exercise, avoiding long periods of sitting, and taking short walking breaks during the day help keep circulation active and the heart muscle strong.

Food Choices that Support the Heart

Cutting down on salty snacks, sugary drinks, and deep-fried items—and adding fruits, vegetables, pulses, nuts, and good fats—keeps blood pressure, cholesterol, and weight in check.

Stress & Sleep Management

Quality sleep, short breaks during the day, relaxation techniques, and time for hobbies reduce strain on the heart and improve recovery.
