these are the things you should do when you are having warning signs of a heart attack.......
Heart attack occurs when the heart doesn't
receive the blood flow because of an obstruction. An obstruction can develop
when a build–up of fatty plaque accumulates in the coronary arteries.
Without blood and oxygen, the heart begins to die.
Early treatment is extremely important in the case of a heart attack.
Therefore, know the symptoms. Detect it as early as possible.heart attack symptoms are:
- shortness of breath
- Breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea.
- Discomfort in other parts of the upper body, especially arms, the back, neck, jaw or even the stomach.
- chest discomfort that either lasts for more than two minutes or leaves and comes back. It is generally described as a feeling of tightness, pressure or pain
Heart attacks are not
always fatal, but you should not wait to respond to a heart attack. If
you suspect that you or someone else is having one of the symptoms above, respond immediately...
- when you notice an increase in chest pain, act quickly. Pain that lasts longer than 5 minutes, a shortness of breath, weakness, nausea or feel lightheaded. These symptoms are all common during a heart attack.
- sit or lie down
- call for emergency help as soon as possible or have someone take you the hospital
- Take nitroglycerin tablets, as directed by your doctor, if you have them.
