does excess alcohol cause aortic valve stenosis?

Answer 1

No;

Answer 2

Alison,

Who do you know who has aortic valve stenosis? Not you, I hope, but it's someone close to you? One of your parents, perhaps, who, it sounds like, drinks too much? I am sorry about that if that 's what the problem is. Alcohol can cause so many problems.

It's not a good condition. If you know what it is, then the person who has it must already have been to the doctor and knows what needs to be done, right?

It really only has three causes, and alcohol is not one of them:

1. Born with it. The heart is a simple pump, but lots of things can go wrong with it as it grows, such as valve stenosis.

2. Calcium. This was my dad's problemm, and it caused the valve to malfunction. A malfunctioning left ventricle is not good for the heart. Dad needed some serious surgery.

3. Rheumatic fever. This is a complication of untreated "strep throat," a bacterial infection that can also affect the heart or brain. Sometimes it affects the heart's valves, like the aortic valve.

Aortic stenosis is serious, I'm afraid, and needs to be closely watched by a doctor. I hope this is happening.

Take care.

Answer 3

There is absolutely no corollation between excessive alcohol intake and the cause of aortic valve stenosis.

An excessive alcohol intake may affect the body, as a whole ,which is already a relatively fragile one from the aortic stenosis.
