Signs that your heart is in danger
1- Pain in the jaw, back, or stomach
Heart problems can cause pain to spread to certain areas such as the jaw or back, and may also reach the neck, arms, and abdomen on one side.
2- Swelling of the legs or ankles
Unexplained swelling, known as edema, in the legs, ankles or abdomen may also be a sign of heart failure.
This sign should never be ignored, especially if the ankle becomes very large, knowing that this swelling can also be caused by blood pressure medications.
3- Dizziness and fainting
Fainting is an important indicator of a heart attack or may become a sign of something wrong with the heart. Therefore, if fainting or dizziness becomes a recurring problem, it is necessary to consult a specialist cardiologist.
4- Shortness of breath
When a person feels short of breath and has never experienced it like this before, it can be a sign of a serious heart condition, such as coronary heart disease, an irregular heartbeat, or heart failure.
5-Sweating for no reason
Sweat usually does not cause concern when exercising or when the weather temperature is high, but sweating profusely for no reason while feeling chest pain requires visiting a specialist doctor immediately.
