Mild mitral regurgitation is usually not self-healing.
Mild mitral regurgitation refers to part of the blood flowing back from the left ventricle to the left atrium when the mitral valve contracts. Mitral regurgitation is mostly caused by mitral valve deformity, prolapse, annular enlargement and other factors. It cannot be recovered by itself due to the above pathological changes, so mild mitral regurgitation cannot be self-healing.
Patients can be diagnosed with specific causes through medical examinations such as ultrasound and CT examination, and receive treatment as soon as possible to restore normal mitral valve shape and function as much as possible to relieve blood regurgitation.
