Hello i recently went to the hospital due to pain in the heart.had a nuclear stress test which was fine. however, they found that the heart size is small.. is this anything to be concerned about. does it indicate anything i should be aware of?thank you so much.Hermine
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. No need to worry about heart size because your nuclear stress test is normal. Heart size depends on over all body habits. If you are short by height and thin by weight then your body organs (including heart) are also smaller than compare to other individuals. But important thing in heart is functioning, not the size. So no need to worry about smaller sized heart. Your nuclear stress test is normal. This means your heart function is absolutely normal and hence nothing to be done for your smaller sized heart. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
