Heart attacks occur when blood cannot flow to the heart due to blockages or plaque buildup in the arteries. Each year, hundreds of thousands face heart attacks. A cardiologist will tell you to watch for key warning signs: chest pain that feels like pressure or tightness, pain spreading to the shoulders, arms, back, neck, jaw, teeth, or even stomach, cold sweats, fatigue, dizziness, and shortness of breath. These symptoms can be serious, especially when they occur together. If you or someone you know experiences these, act fast and seek emergency medical help. Recognizing the signs early can save a life. For more information on heart health and to schedule an appointment, visit our website or call us today.
