What is aortic stenosis?
Aortic stenosis is a type of heart valve disease in which the aortic valve becomes narrowed or blocked. This can make it difficult for blood to flow from the heart to the rest of the body, causing symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, and fatigue. Aortic stenosis can be caused by a variety of factors, including age, congenital heart defects, infections, and degenerative diseases. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to repair or replace the damaged valve.
