Heart failure generally refers to heart failure. Lower limb edema caused by heart failure can be relieved by general treatment, drug therapy, surgery, etc.

1. General treatment

patients need to keep proper rest and limit physical activity when their condition is unstable. Diet needs to limit sodium intake so as not to cause water and sodium retention.

2. Drug therapy

can be used under the guidance of doctors to treat diuretics, such as torasemide tablets, bumetanide tablets, spironolactone tablets, etc.

3. Surgical treatment

For patients with severe disease and unable to be relieved by conservative treatment, surgical treatment can be considered, including cardiac resynchronization therapy, implantable cardioverter defibrillator, heart transplantation, etc.
