Doctors tell us to watch out for our health, especially our hearts. The human heart is the most vital organ in our body, pumping oxygen-enriched blood into our systems through steady contractions allowing us to partake in everyday activity.
Heart attacks are very common and are often sudden and untraceable. However, there are numerous signs that can be detected early and vary from person to person. Your body is unique, and so are the ways it will respond to heart problems. So how can you check for early warning signs of a heart attack? Here is a list that can give alert to an ultimately life changing and life-threatening event:
1. Chest Discomfort: these pains can range from slightly mild discomfort to extreme discomfort
2. Discomfort in other Body Parts: these pains can range from tingling in the hands, down the arms, to your chest, neck and back
3. Gastrointestinal Problems: symptoms include nausea and stomach pains
4. Flulike Symptoms
5. Shortness of Breath: this may or may not be combined with chest pains or pains in other parts of the body
If you are feeling any of these symptoms, please contact your doctor immediately. Why let this absolutely necessary and precious organ go unchecked? Learn the signs of an unhealthy heart so you can help prevent heart attacks and continue to live a long and healthy life!
