Before A Heart Attack, Your Body Will Warn You With These Signs
A month before you get a heart attack, your body will start warning you with these eight vital signs.
After conducting various surveys, the American Heart and Stroke Association have concluded that heart diseases and strokes are the leading causes of deaths all over the world, causing the highest number of deaths. It found out that most of the patients either suffer for the first time or have recurrent heart attacks. Heart attacks may result because of Insufficiency of blood flow or blockage in the coronary artery.
It has been found that over 700000 people suffer from heart attacks annually, 100000 of them dying of it. The results are thus alarming. Although the data shows an exorbitantly high rate of cardiovascular diseases in the recent years, there are some key symptoms from which a person will most likely suffer from before having a heart attack. Preventing these symptoms can prevent the heart attack.
So, here are the eight most important symptoms of heart attack that a patient will most likely suffer from:
1
Dizziness is a primary symptom of Heart attack, which is caused by lack of blood flow. It causes lack of adequate blood flow to the most vital organ, brain, which causes dizziness. It is thus alarming and should not be taken lightly.
