Extremely eHealthy

A gradual increase in exercise helps the heart to get back in shape and adapt to any scars left behind.
Usually, it takes anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks for the heart muscle to get back in shape.
Lifestyle modifications and use of certain medications will help your heart functioning well.
