How to Recognize Congestive Heart Failure Symptoms?

Congestive heart failure is a condition in which the heart cannot pump enough blood to meet the body's needs. It is usually caused by chronic disease or aging. The body tries to be efficient by increasing the amount of water and salt in the blood.

This causes swelling, weight gain and shortness of breath. Congestive heart   failure is also associated with diabetes and high blood pressure. However, the most common cause of heart failure is coronary artery disease (CAD)This is when the arteries that supply blood to the heart narrow and become blocked.
