The causes of hear murmurs are related usually to defective heart valves. However, other causes can be a hole in the hear known as a septal defect, endocarditis, aortic valve stenosis, and rheumatic fever. Endocarditis is an infection of the heart lining, and aortic valve stenosis is the narrowing of the aortic valve due to calcification.
