Is my heart murmur a threat to my overall health?

Murmur: Heart murmur is just noise. If the noise is caused by a significant heart blood flow problem, that is what you need to know. Ask your doc what is going on.

It depends: Heart murmur is a finding on physical exam. It's not a disease. Determing the cause of the murmur will allow you to know whether there are health concerns.
