Do you feel unusually breathless during everyday activities? Have you been told your heart or lungs may be under increased pressure? Do you experience fatigue, dizziness, chest discomfort or reduced stamina without understanding why? These may be signs of Pulmonary Hypertension.
Pulmonary Hypertension (PH) is a condition in which the blood pressure inside the arteries of the lungs becomes abnormally high. As pressure within these vessels increases, the heart has to work harder to pump blood through the lungs. Over time, this can affect both lung and heart function, leading to worsening breathlessness and reduced exercise capacity.
At Healthy Chest & Sleep Clinic, Dr. Vishal Sharma provides comprehensive assessment and management of Pulmonary Hypertension, helping patients improve symptoms, maintain activity levels and protect their long-term health.

Pulmonary Hypertension often develops gradually and may initially be mistaken for ageing, lack of fitness or other respiratory conditions. Because symptoms are often non-specific, diagnosis may sometimes be delayed.

Persistent tiredness
Tightness or heaviness in the chest
Feeling faint or unsteady
Loss of consciousness
Palpitations or a racing heart
Fluid retention in the lower limbs
Routine activities become harder

Pulmonary function testing, chest imaging review, oxygen assessment, echocardiography review, sleep and exercise capacity assessment.
Understanding the root cause helps guide the most effective treatment strategy.
Plans tailored to disease severity, underlying diagnosis, symptoms, oxygen levels and lifestyle requirements.
Regular follow-up to monitor disease progression, treatment response and overall cardiopulmonary health.
Focused evaluation and management of advanced pulmonary conditions.
Looking beyond symptoms to identify the underlying cause of disease.
Every patient receives a treatment strategy tailored to their condition and needs.
Dedicated follow-up aimed at maintaining lung health and improving outcomes.
Pulmonary Hypertension requires specialised assessment, accurate diagnosis and ongoing management. If you are experiencing unexplained breathlessness or have concerns about elevated pressure in the lungs, consult Dr. Vishal Sharma for a comprehensive evaluation and personalised treatment plan.
