While 40% of people recognised ‘feeling unusually tired or weak’ to be a symptom of HF, just 23% and 25% respectively associated ‘shortness of breath when you are resting or being active’ and ‘swelling of the feet, ankles, legs, abdomen, or in the small of your back’ to be symptoms of HF

François Tardif
: « small of the back » [(creux des) reins · chute des reins · cambrure des reins · bas du dos] n’est pas un terme médical, donc on doit garder le même niveau de langue.

: Terme couramment utilisé. Je vous jure, les français 'moyens' utilisent des termes plus 'savants' tandis que les médecins (comme ici) utilisent des termes plus 'quotidiens'
