Heart Attack Treatment – Symptoms and Causes

A heart attack occurs when the blood flow to the heart is cut off. There aren’t always obvious symptoms of something being wrong with your heart. Chest pain is not the only sign of a heart attack. Some cardiac symptoms aren’t even felt in the chest, and it’s not always easy to figure out what’s wrong.

Treatment of Heart Attack

Healing Hospital Chandigarh - Heart Attack Treatment in Chandigarh Mohali

A heart attack is a medical emergency that necessitates quick medical attention in order to avoid irreparable cardiac damage or death. If you call the emergency helpline number, treatment may begin in the ambulance or in the emergency room if you were taken to the hospital by someone else.

 

The majority of the treatment will consist of taking medications such as aspirin, beta-blockers, statins, ACE inhibitors, etc. These medications aid in the improvement of blood flow to the heart, the prevention of clotting, and the reduction of the risk of a recurrent heart attack.

 

If you’ve had a heart attack, your doctor will also discuss lifestyle changes with you. These modifications can help you avoid more cardiac problems in future.

Symptoms of Heart Attack

 

  1. A silent heart attack can make you feel like:

 

  • You’ve caught the flu.
  • You have a sore muscle in your upper back or chest.
  • You’re experiencing pain in your jaw, arms, or upper back.
  • You’re exhausted.
  • You’re suffering from indigestion.

 

  1. Chest Pain, Pressure, Fullness, or Discomfort

 

Pain caused by a heart attack can be instant and severe, making it easier to notice and to seek medical treatment. But what happens when it isn’t so obvious?

 

Most heart attacks cause just minor discomfort or pain in the center of your chest. Pressure, squeezing, or fullness may also be felt. These symptoms normally appear gradually and may disappear and reappear.

 

There is a possibility of interpreting these as symptoms of something less serious, such as heartburn. However, you are the best judge of your own body. If you suspect something is wrong, you should not take it lightly and consult a doctor immediately.

 

  1. Difficulty in breathing

 

If you feel as if you’ve raced a marathon but you have simply walked up the stairs, it could be a symptom that your heart isn’t pumping enough blood to the rest of your body. Shortness of breath can occur with or without chest discomfort, and it’s a common symptom of a silent heart attack.

 

  1. Nausea and cold sweats

 

It is possible that waking up in a cold sweat, feeling sick or vomiting are flu symptoms, but they could also be signals of a silent heart attack. You may know how the flu feels because you’ve had it before, but listen to your instincts if you feel these flu-like symptoms are a sign of something more serious.

Causes of Heart Attack

 

The most common cause of blockage is an accumulation of fat, cholesterol, and other chemicals which forms plaque in the arteries. A plaque can create a clot, thus obstructing blood flow. Although a heart attack or myocardial infarction, can be deadly, therapy has vastly improved over the years. If you suspect you’re suffering from a heart attack, get emergency medical treatment right away.

 

If you are 60 or older, overweight, have diabetes, high cholesterol or high blood pressure, you should be more concerned about heart-related problems.
