Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation

Symptoms

Tricuspid valve regurgitation may not produce any symptoms until the condition becomes more severe due to the heart not being able to pump enough blood to allow the rest of the body to receive the oxygen it needs. These symptoms may include the following:

  • Fatigue or tiredness
  • Weakness
  • Active pulsing in the neck veins
  • Swelling of the abdomen
  • Swelling of the legs, ankles, and/or feet
  • Irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias)
  • Shortness of breath with activity
  • Decreased urine output
  • An enlarged liver
