Muscle fatigue is a typical symptom that decreases muscles' ability to perform over time. It can be temporarily associated with a state of exhaustion, often following strenuous activities or exercise. However, if muscle fatigue persists or progresses from localized to generalized weakness, it might indicate the abnormalities of nerves and muscles (neuromuscular system) which is known as “Myasthenia Gravis” or shortly called “MG”.

Prevention is always better than cure especially when it comes to your heart. World Heart Day is celebrated every year on 29th September. In 2018, world heart day informs people around the world about the actions that individuals can take to prevent cardiovascular disease. Here is what you can do.
There are four heart valves that keep blood flowing in the correct direction. Each valve has flaps that open and close once during each heartbeat. If the valve is damaged or diseased, it will not open or close properly, disrupting the blood flow from your heart to your body. Heart valve disease may be present at birth. It can also occur in adults due to many causes and conditions, such as infections, heart diseases, and older age.

Aortic stenosis, the progressive failure of the aortic valve to open fully, is one of the most common types of heart disease in elderly people. 3% of elderlies aged 75 years and above have this condition. As you age, calcium can build up on the valve, making it harder and thicker. As a result, your aortic valve is unable to open properly, forcing the heart to work harder to pump blood through the narrowed valve. This can lead to heart failure. Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) is a new minimally invasive surgical technique. It is suitable for high risk elderly patients who cannot undergo open-heart surgery.
