I've just found out that I have a heart murmur. What does it mean?

It means that your heart is not functioning as well as it should be, and you may need to see a doctor for further testing. Heart murmurs can often be caused by a variety of things, including an infection or inflammation in the heart muscle, damage to the valves, or even genetic conditions. Your doctor will be able to determine if there is any cause for concern, and what steps should be taken next.
