What is chf?

CHF stands for Congestive Heart Failure, a chronic condition in which the heart is unable to pump blood effectively, leading to a buildup of fluid in the lungs and other body tissues. This can result in symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and swelling in the legs and abdomen. CHF can be caused by various factors, including coronary artery disease, high blood pressure, and previous heart attacks. Management typically involves lifestyle changes, medications, and sometimes medical procedures.
