What's Heart Attack?
A heart attack, medically known as a myocardial infarction, occurs when there is a blockage in the coronary arteries, impeding the flow of blood to a part of the heart muscle. This blockage is often the result of a buildup of plaque, composed of cholesterol and other substances, within the arteries. The lack of blood flow deprives the heart muscle of oxygen and nutrients, leading to its damage or death if not promptly addressed.
Symptoms of a heart attack may vary from person to person but commonly include:
➤ Chest pain or discomfort, often described as pressure, squeezing, or tightness.
➤ Pain or discomfort in the upper body, including the arms, back, neck, jaw, or stomach.
