Do you know why the heart attacks occur? This condition is due to when there is a clot formation in the artery. So that the blood flows to the heart gets blocked. If the flow of blood is not restored quickly, then due to the lack of oxygen the heart muscle becomes damaged. This can lead to death.

Most common symptoms of heart attack are: Heaviness in the chest, Shortness of breadth, Pain radiating to shoulders or jaws, Dizziness, A low pulse, Sweating and vomiting.

When there is a mild symptom you should not be careless. You should contact the doctor as soon as possible. When a person suffered from a heart attack, don’t panic. Make the patient to lie down in comfortable position and give him an aspirin to chew.

Call the ambulance to take the patient to the hospital. If the heart beat stops at that time, do Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) even if you’re untrained. As soon as the patient reaches the hospital, get the electrocardiogram (ECG) done. These early treatment will surely help the patient in some way.
