Heart diseases, also known as cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), refer to a group of conditions affecting the heart and blood vessels. Common types include: 1. Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) – Narrowing of the arteries due to plaque buildup, leading to chest pain (angina) or heart attacks. 2. Heart Failure – The heart struggles to pump blood efficiently, causing fatigue, swelling, and shortness of breath. 3. Arrhythmias – Irregular heartbeats, which may be too fast (tachycardia), too slow (bradycardia), or erratic. 4. Valvular Heart Disease – Malfunctioning heart valves causing improper blood flow. 5. Congenital Heart Defects – Structural heart problems present at birth. 6. Cardiomyopathy – Weakening of the heart muscle, leading to difficulty pumping blood. 7. Hypertensive Heart Disease – Damage to the heart due to long-term high blood pressure. 8. Pericarditis – Inflammation of the protective sac around the heart, causing chest pain.
