Not surprisingly, cardiovascular diseases are currently recording the highest mortality rates in France. It is in many cases a sudden heart attack, but the precursor signs are expressed much earlier by the body. It is up to us to take note of it for the sake of pure prevention.
Heart attack, also called myocardial infarction, is the direct result of a blockage in the coronary artery, which causes a lot of dysfunctions including the obstruction of the blood circulation or the deterioration of a part heart muscle. It is therefore a question of a very urgent situation requiring an immediate intervention, knowing that the more the artery concerned is obstructed, the more the feeding of the other organs of the body with oxygen is endangered, which in turn means that the danger hovering over the patient's life is great. In order to avoid finding yourself in such a case, you should read the warning symptoms of this condition:
Permanent and unexplained fatigue
The obstruction of an artery causes the heart to redouble its efforts and consume more energy to pump the same amount of blood as before into the rest of the body, which causes fatigue that remains despite the absence of the slightest effort.
Cold sweats
This symptom usually does not come alone because it is very often accompanied by vertigo, a sensation of dizziness as well as a malaise. Such inconvenience can occur at any time, whether it is day or night, knowing that the ambient temperature, whether low or high, does not affect this perspiration.
Altered heartbeat
Such a heart condition is the direct result of coronary artery obstruction, which causes myocardial difficulty to contract due to lack of irrigation. Then, as oxygen no longer diffuse as it should in different parts of the body, the first cells to suffer are those heart muscles that eventually die causing a phenomenon called "arrhythmia."
Insomnia or recurrent sleep disorders
A study published by the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology was able to establish a direct relationship between having trouble falling asleep, different sleep disorders and the risk of being affected by heart disease. So if you see that your body does not feel sleepy at a time when it should, it means that the risk of suffering from such a disease is not far. According to a study by researchers from the Shenyang School of Chinese Medicine, the probability of having a myocardial infarction rises by 27% when the person suffers from insomnia.
Chest pain
The presence of throbbing pain in the chest or even near-permanent pressure in the chest area indicates in many cases an increased risk of heart attack. In some situations, the pain may even extend beyond the chest to reach one or more limbs, or even the jaw or shoulder.
Breathing problems or shortness of breath
As a result of the disruption of the process of feeding the lungs with oxygen, shortness of breath and other respiratory problems very often appear, and at the same time serve as warning signs of an impending heart attack. In short, this means that an unjustified breathlessness resulting from no physical exertion is a symptom not to be taken lightly because it may be indicative of the approach of a myocardial infarction.
