JawaPos.com- People need to be aware of sudden heart attacks. It would be good for someone to know the symptoms of a heart attack early. In general, the symptoms of a heart attack are almost the same as digestive disorders.
A heart attack, also called a myocardial infarction, occurs when part of the heart muscle does not get enough blood. The more people neglect treatment to restore blood flow, the greater the damage to the heart muscle.
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the main cause of heart attacks. A less common cause is a severe spasm, or sudden contraction, of the coronary arteries that can stop blood flow to the heart muscle.

The discomfort can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain. Feeling weak, dizzy, or faint. A person may also break out in a cold sweat. Pain or discomfort in the jaw, neck, or back. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms or shoulders. Hard to breathe.

Although the symptoms can vary, the discomfort or pain caused by a heart attack is usually similar to angina (a type of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart). However, this condition is often more severe and may occur while you are resting.
According to information reported from National Health Service (NHS) that the symptoms of a heart attack can also be similar to digestive disorders. For example, symptoms may include a feeling of heaviness in the chest, stomach ache, or heartburn.
A heart attack can occur at any time, including when a person is resting. If heart pain lasts more than 15 minutes, it may be a precursor to a heart attack.
