How is Heart attack happening
Your heart is the blood pump in your body, it pumps the blood to all your body, and the blood return to the heart through the coronary artery, Heart attack develops when plaques (substance made of cholesterol, fat, and calcium) clot the flow of the blood in the coronary artery, which builds up through years on the walls of the arteries.
Heart disease symptoms
- Chest discomfort or pain such as ache, tightness, pressure, fullness, or squeezing in the chest lasting for a few minutes.
- Upper body pain such as back, neck, arm, shoulders, jaw, and teeth, and sometimes the pain will come without chest pain.
- Stomach pain feels like heartburn or constipation, menstrual cramps, food poising, or stomach virus if any case you get abdominal accompanied by any symptoms of a heart attack such as breath shortness it could sign of a heart attack.
- Shortness of breath with or without chest pain.
- Sweating without apparent reasons such as a hot climate, feeling stressed, or doing physical activities are probably symptoms of a heart attack if it is accompanied by other symptoms such as breathing shortness, neck, or arm pain dizziness.
- Heart palpitation (more of this later below).
- Nausea can occur when your body and mind feel stressed, food poising, stomach virus, and pregnancy, nausea can’t be identified as a sign of a heart attack since it has many different reasons.
- Dizziness can result from standing up quickly, vertigo, inner ear infection, and low or high blood pressure, also common symptoms of heart attack or angina.
Silent heart attack
This type of heart attack has the same symptoms as a normal heart attack, but the difference is that it can happen without chest pain, it usually happened at night during sleep.
Heart Palpitation
- Heart palpitation is the feeling of heart fast beating, fluttering, or pounding heart which can be triggered by exercise, stress, and medication drugs.
- Heart palpitations can be felt in the throat, neck, or chest whether you are active or resting.
- Symptoms of heart palpitation such as beating too fast, flip-flopping, fluttering rapidly, pounding, or skipping beats.
- Heart palpitation can be caused by many factors including strong emotional responses, depression, strenuous exercise, stimulants, and hormone change.
Heart attack and panic attack
- Panic attacks have similar symptoms to heart attacks such as rapid heartbeat, chest pain, breathing issues, light-headedness, and weakness.
- Poor breathing can cause chest pain, shortness of breath, and muscle pain.
- Vomiting is a clear sign of a heart attack since it’s not likely to happen with a panic attack.
- The best practice to define if you suffer a panic attack or heart attack is to get checked by your doctor, and if your heart is in good health, it’s likely to be a panic attack.
How to prevent Heart attack
- Maintaining a healthy diet which will reduce the intake of fat and sugar food will help to eliminate or reduce the build-up of plaque in the blood arteries.
- Healthy food should have rich fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains.
- A healthy heart can be maintained through exercises such as daily walking for 30 minutes or at least 5 times a week.
- Frequent exercise will strengthen your heart and increase blood pumping efficiency in your body.
- During workouts and exercise maximum heart rate can be defined as 220 minus your age.
- Mediation or relaxing practice for 20 minutes can relieve stress and reduce your high blood pressure which will be effective for heart health.
How to maintain a normal heart rate
- Make sure your environment and surroundings are cool and comfortable, hot climate, and humidity can increase your heart rate.
- Emotionally upset can increase your heart rate, which can be brought to normal by slow breathing.
- Standing up quickly from a sitting position can increase heart rate rapidly and let feel dizzy.
- Consuming fish has a noticeable effect on reducing the heart rate, which you need to consider including in your diet program.
- different factors can cause an increase in heart rates such as fever, anxiety, the side effect of medical and stress drugs, emotional distress, fright, anaemia, severe bleeding, and finally heart failure or heart attack.
- Tachycardia if left without treatment can lead to complications such as frequent fainting blood clots, which can lead to heart stroke or heart attack and heart failure.
- Ventricular tachycardia happens when the lower parts of your heartbeat are faster than normal which can prevent your heart from pumping blood efficiently to your body and brain.
Final Thoughts
