What is a mildly tortuous aorta cough?
A mildly tortuous aorta refers to a slight curvature or twisting of the aorta, which is the large artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body. A cough associated with this condition may occur if the aorta exerts pressure on nearby structures, such as the bronchial tubes, leading to irritation. While a mildly tortuous aorta is often benign and asymptomatic, any persistent cough should be evaluated by a healthcare professional to rule out other underlying conditions.
