@3ndGroup its often something that your born with, and is EXPENSIVE to detect, because it requires an MRI (magnetic Radio imaging). and is not done in physicals unless requested by parent, and is a rare condition so nobody does.

To clarify, there are some treatments aimed at underlying causes such as blood pressure. However, if a heart already has a thinned ventricle wall it's difficult to recover. Enlarged heart is most certainly not 'untreatable'.

There is no current 'cure' for an enlarged heart to return to normal. Treatments most frequently include behaviour modification to a healthier lifestyle and symptom management. This therapy is an example - helping to manage the increased stress on the ventricles with a support mesh.

@3ndGroup and ViperClutch
The most common cause of an enlarged heart is chronic high blood pressure. High blood pressure makes your heart work harder to pump out the same amount of blood, which can wear it down over time. This damage leads to thinning of the walls from the ventricle, which of course makes it harder for your heart to pump and this cycle can continue until heart failure in bad cases. Hypertension (high blood pressure) is usually rooted in age, sedentary lifestyle & bad nutrition.

@DAROMSninja have you been checked out by a cardiologist? or a doctor? they could run some Xrays on it and an EKG or an Ultrasound. do you drink? do you smoke? my advice is to drink plenty of water, like 4-5 glasses a day, and dont drink soda.. if you have a sweet tooth, drink fruit juices,vegetable juices. for your heart exercise, you should lift maybe 5-7lb weights about 60X on each arm a day, and walk for at least 45minutes or jog/run. do a few push ups or bicycle for an hour. these can helpU

@mukaikof Are you sure? I doubt I have an enlarged heart but I have strange symptoms of shortness of breath and my heart jumping for no reason feeling like its in my throat. I should start exercising.
The really sad thing is, the net is probably plastic and costs at most 20 cents to make, but costs the health insurer several thousand dollars not including the costs of surgery!
