Heart Attack
A heart attack, also known as a myocardial infarction, occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, leading to damage or death of heart muscle cells. Symptoms can include chest pain, shortness of breath, and nausea. Immediate medical attention is crucial to minimize damage and improve outcomes. Preventive measures include lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking. Understanding the signs and risk factors for heart attacks is essential for early detection and prevention.
