Early Warning Signs of a Heart Attack– Don’t Ignore Them Contact Chandan Hospital
Your heart sends you signals before a crisis. Learn to listen.
A heart attack does not always mean dramatic chest pain and collapsing on the floor, as seen in movies. The symptoms are not always noticeable. Knowing the early signs can save your life or the life of someone you care for.
Our cardiologists at Chandan Hospital want you to be informed and learn the early warning signs of a heart attack. When you see these warning signs, you can take necessary action on time and reduce the potential impact.
🚨 Common Early Signs of a Heart Attack
1. Chest Discomfort or Pressure
-
In the chest, the person feels a feeling of pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain.
-
This sensation may come and go, or it may feel like indigestion.
-
This does not have to be painful - some people feel only mild discomfort.
2. Shortness of Breath
-
May occur with or without chest discomfort.
-
You may feel like you can not catch your breath during full rest or even with light activity.
3. Pain in Other Parts of the Body
-
Discomfort may spread to one or both arms (usually the L arm), back or shoulder, neck, jaw, or stomach.
-
Pain may come on suddenly or gradually build up.
4. Cold Sweat
-
Sudden cold sweating with no explanation is a warning sign.
-
Usually, along with light-headedness.
5. Nausea or Vomiting
-
Nausea or vomiting is common, especially in women.
-
You might feel like you're experiencing extreme indigestion.
6. Fatigue or Weakness
-
Unusual fatigue even with minimal activity.
-
Many patients describe noting similar extreme fatigue days and even weeks before they have a heart attack.
⚠️ Heart Attack Symptoms in Women
Women often have unusual symptoms, like:
-
Upper back and/or jaw pain
-
