Things you need to know about Heart Murmurs
What is a heart murmur?
The heart pumps blood into the blood vessels with every beat. The flow of blood due to this pumping creates a sound like whooshing or swishing, known as heart murmurs. These sounds can be heard by your doctor with a stethoscope. The closure or opening of the valves in each heart beat creates the sound “lubb-dupp”.
