Abnormal narrowing of a heart valve is known as stenosis. This condition restricts blood flow through the valve, causing the heart to work harder to pump blood, which can lead to symptoms like fatigue, shortness of breath, and chest pain. Stenosis can affect any of the heart's valves, with aortic and mitral stenosis being the most common. Treatment options may include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgical interventions such as valve repair or replacement.
