[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor. Thanks for writing to us. The most common causes of left atrial abnormality(LAW) are-1. Hypertension2.valvular heart diseases like Mitral valve stenosis and regurgitation3. Atrial fibrillation4. Heart failures likely in your case the cause of LAW is hypertension. So control of hypertension should the prime target. You may go for a ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY to rule out any valvular heart disease. You may also the statins for control of cholesterol and prophylaxis against atrial fibrillation after consulting with your doctor.Otherwise, at this point of time, nothing more is required, just take antihypertensives regularly. Hope I have answered your query. Stay fit, good luck.
