Conditions That Can Cause a 心脏病
What Are the Symptoms of a 心脏病?
It can be harder than you might think to recognize when a heart attack is happening. Some people have very mild symptoms that they may not even consider pain. Other people have debilitating pain that prevents them from walking or standing.
心 attack symptoms can be very different for each person. Symptoms may include the following:
- 胸痛或不适. 你可能会感到压力, 挤压, or fullness in your chest that lasts longer than a couple minutes. You might also feel pain or a tight ache. Your pain or discomfort might go away for a little while but then come back.
- 胃疼. Some people say that a heart attack feels like having heartburn. You may have pain that runs down from your chest into your stomach area.
- 上半身疼痛. Some people can have pain in their jaw, teeth, neck, back, or arms, or shoulders. You may have pain these areas but not have any pain in your chest.
- 呼吸急促（气促）. You may feel short of breath just before your chest starts to hurt—or you chest might not hurt at all. You may be taking deep breaths or you may feel like you’re panting.
