A silent heart attack occurs with minimal or no symptoms, potentially leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment. Dr Vikas Kumar Keshri, Senior Consultant in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery at Narayana Hospital, Gurugram, will share more insights on heart attacks.
Some of the most common signs of heart attack include -
Chest Pain
Shortness of Breath
Sudden Sweating
Dizziness
However, some individuals experience 'silent' heart attacks, with symptoms like breathlessness and mild chest heaviness, often mistaken for bloating, leading to prolonged lack of treatment. Those with diabetes, kidney diseases, and smokers are at higher risk. Moreover, individuals with a high pain tolerance may overlook minor discomfort.
Signs of silent angina or silent heart attacks include prolonged weakness, leg swelling, dizziness, and vomiting. Do not delay seeking medical attention; prompt evaluation and treatment by a qualified cardiologist are essential to prevent potential complications and ensure the best possible outcome for your cardiac and overall health.
