Blood is pumped by the human heart to all parts of the body, including the critical organs. When the heart loses strength and is unable to carry out its task, cardiac failure occurs. The disorder can have an effect on the body and even cause organ failure.

1. Traffic jams

The accumulation of fluid in the lungs due to heart failure is a possibility. As a result, the person may cough, wheeze, and have breathing problems.



2. Ankle swelling or Edema

The heart is unable to return the used blood from the lower areas of the body when it loses the ability to pump blood effectively. This results in an accumulation of fluid in the legs, ankles, thighs, and abdomen, and produces swelling.



3. Breathing difficulties

It is challenging for the carbon dioxide-rich blood to be transformed into new, oxygenated blood because of the fluid accumulation in the lungs. As the fluid moves from below the lungs to the torso due to gravity, the shortness of breath could become more noticeable when lying flat.



4. Challenges with executing tasks

People with heart failure frequently struggle to execute daily tasks and even engage in physical activity due to their shortness of breath and weariness.

5. Tiredness

There may still be an overall sense of exhaustion and fatigue for those who have the illness. This is due to the heart's failure to effectively pump oxygenated blood to meet the body's energy needs.

Cardiac failure follows the weakening of the heart muscles for a variety of reasons. Blood flow to the organs can be restricted by high blood pressure and constricted arteries.
