Mitral Regurgitation is termed as abnormal reversible of blood flow from left ventricle towards left atrium due to disruption of mitral valve prolapse which may lead to insufficient blood flow to rest of the body. Mitral regurgitation is a heart condition where the mitral valve does not close tightly, causing blood to flow backward into the heart. This can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, and irregular heartbeats. Homeopathy offers natural remedies to manage symptoms and improve heart function.
