Tricuspid regurgitation (TR), a heart valve disease often overlooked in India, involves the tricuspid valve leaking blood backward, impairing heart function. Common causes include rheumatic heart disease, congenital defects, infective endocarditis, and age-related degeneration. Symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, and swelling appear late, making early diagnosis difficult. Cardiologist Dr. Sumanto Mukhopadhyay highlights the condition's serious impact on quality of life and heart health.
