A member asked:

Diagnosed with sinus infection at urgent care. dr said i have a benign heart murmur. how can he tell it is benign?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Make sure what it is: See your family doctor first , or a cardiologist to find out what you have , by clinical examination if needed echocardiogram once your sinus condition clears.
