What is a heart attack?
A heart attack is a medical emergency because it can cause sudden death.
This occurs when one or more of your coronary arteries become blocked.
This condition then limits the amount of blood flowing to the heart, leading to a lack of oxygen.
The blockage is the result of narrowing of the arteries, a process called coronary heart disease (CHD).
Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of heart attacks and is a leading killer both in the UK and worldwide.
According to the Mayo Clinic, cold in the legs or arms is a symptom of heart disease.
Symptoms, which may be accompanied by pain, numbness and weakness, appear when the blood vessels in the legs or arms become narrowed.
