World Heart Day message - Dr. Rajesh
Dr. Rajesh, Cardio Thoracic and Vascular Surgeon, emphasizes the importance of World Heart Day, observed on September 29th, to raise awareness about heart health. This year’s theme, "Use Heart for Every Heart," reminds us to act responsibly for every individual’s heart. Heart disease is now at epidemic levels, affecting both urban and rural populations, including women and younger individuals. Dr. Rajesh highlights that heart disease is preventable through a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and avoiding smoking. Regular health check-ups and proper treatment can help manage risk factors like diabetes and hypertension.
