Cardiovascular diseases remain one of the main causes of death and disability throughout the world.
This information was reported by Pixelinform, URA-Inform reports.
According to statistics from the World Health Organization, millions of people die every year from heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular diseases. As a rule, most of these diseases are diagnosed late, because few patients present for the first symptoms, and this is indeed a big problem.
Doctors have named 10 symptoms that require immediate medical attention
1. Chest pain. This is one of the most characteristic symptoms of cardiovascular disease. The pain can be sharp, pulling or squeezing, often felt in the center of the chest or on the left.
2. Dyspnea. Shortness of breath with minimal exercise or at rest may be a sign of heart failure or other heart problems.
3. Changes in heart rhythm. Sudden heart changes, such as tachycardia or atrial fibrillation, may indicate problems with the heart.
4. Swelling in the legs and feet. This may be a sign of heart failure, in which the heart cannot pump blood effectively, resulting in fluid retention in the body.
5. Extreme fatigue. Unusual or sudden tiredness may be a sign of heart failure or coronary artery disease, especially if it is accompanied by other symptoms.
6. Dizziness and fainting. Sudden dizziness or loss of consciousness may be a sign of decreased circulation and may require immediate intervention.
7. Pain in the neck, jaw, upper back, or shoulder. These symptoms are often misinterpreted but may be related to heart problems, especially if they occur suddenly.
8. Cold sweat. The sudden appearance of cold sweat along with other symptoms may be a sign of myocardial infarction.
9. Pale skin. Sudden paleness or marbling of the skin may indicate a deterioration in blood supply, which is a serious symptom requiring urgent medical attention.
10. Increased sweating. Excessive sweating, especially when combined with other symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, may be a sign of a heart attack.
