Congestive Heart Failure happens when, the right ventricle has trouble pumping blood to the lungs. The blood goes back into the blood vessels, and causes fluid retention in the abdomen, extremities, and other vital organs. This can also happen to the left side of the heart as it is happening to the right (Macon, 2016). Fluid buildup is called congestion, that is why it's called Congestive Heart Failure. This happens when the heart and body can no longer keep up, and the kidneys respond by causing the body to hold in water and salt. The fluid and salt can build in the arms, ankles, lungs, and other organs. The body then becomes congested. Although the symptoms can be different they include, shortness of breath and fatigue. Swelling can occur
