[|Human|] My baby[boy] born on 17th Jan 2015. After 4 days i went for doctor checkup, he absorved baby and he told to me a small hole in heart. Can you please tell me how to recover from the issue, either it will cure with food habbits of mother or through medicines please tell me.
[|AI|]  As such you need to know size and location of hole in heart. There is inadequate information in your question .but I shall inform you about 2 common holes and its management.1.ASD hole in septum between 2 upper chambers of heart. This has to be operated by the age of 5 yes once child attains weight around 15 to 20 kg. Exceptionally large hole with high pressure in lungs may need early closure.2.VSD hole in septum between 2 lower chambers of heart. This can have various locations. Amongst all one variety called semimembranosus VSD may close spontaneously by age of 10 yrs. All remaining types need closure depending upon weight gain and pressure in lungs. So you need regular echo assessment to decide timing of surgery. I hope you all the best to child.
