What is a heart cough?

Doctor 1

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

Heavy breathing accompanied by spells of wet cough with frothy sputum that may be tinged with blood is called as "Cardiac cough or Heart cough". It is a sign of congestive heart failure. Additional symptoms such as shortness of breath on exertion or rest, leg swelling, waking up from sleep in the middle of night gasping and coughing differentiate heart cough from cough due to lung conditions.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure for about 20 years now, and despite taking medications like atorvastatin, aspirin, hydralazine, and amlodipine, it doesn't seem to be improving. I'm really worried and wondering if there's anything else I should be doing or trying. Any advice?

Today my mom's been having chest pains, so we got an ECG done. The results mentioned an abnormal R wave progression with early transition. I'm not quite sure what that means or how concerned we should be. Can you explain it to me and let me know if it's anything serious?

yes
