In general, the human body gives small symptoms to prevent many big problems. The main thing is not to ignore these signs. It is especially important not to neglect the health of the elderly, as well as overweight people, people with diabetes and hypertension, or people with high cholesterol. The truth is that we often do not pay attention when we give a heart attack. However, here is a list of 10 symptoms of heart disease that you may not notice.

1. Chest pain. According to experts, chest pain is the most common. It is impossible to describe it precisely. This is because some people have a slight chest pain, while others have a pinching or squeezing pain. If such sensations occur, an ultrasound or cardiogram of the heart should be performed. In case of severe pain lasting more than a few minutes, it is recommended to call an ambulance.

2. Loss of appetite, nausea, stomach pain or heaviness. Of course, digestive problems can be caused by many factors that have nothing to do with the heart. One of them is to see a doctor if you have symptoms of nausea or chest discomfort for no apparent reason. This is because low blood flow is a sign of poor heart function.

3. Pain in the teeth or lower jaw. Tooth decay, jaw pain, pain from a cold. However, pain in the lower jaw and teeth are symptoms of heart disease. Bacteria in the mouth can enter the bloodstream and cause inflammation in the arteries. This in turn leads to heart disease. If your teeth are constantly worried for no reason, you should see a cardiologist.

4. Pain in the hands and feet. Pain in your left shoulder, or both arms at once, is one of the less obvious signs of heart disease. If you do not get a blow or injury to these parts of the body in the near future, it is better to see a specialist. Because pain in the arteries of the legs is a sign of peripheral vascular disease. That is, if there is a problem with the arteries of the legs, it is necessary to check the heart.

5. Sweating. It releases enough adrenaline into the bloodstream and speeds up the heartbeat, and the arteries work three times harder, which can lead to heavy sweating. This is not scary in itself. However, if you experience pain with obvious weakness, it is better to see a doctor. Unexplained sweating is a signal of cardiac arrhythmias.

6. Fatigue is a common symptom of many diseases. Excessive fatigue is a symptom of heart disease, such as myocardial infarction. If you get tired quickly during exercise, and this condition persists for several days, it is advisable to see a cardiologist. This is because a weakened heart cannot provide full blood circulation, and as a result, the body begins to feel a lack of nutrients and oxygen.

7. Fainting or blindness. Darkening of the eyes, decreased visual acuity can be due to various reasons. The most common cause is a sudden drop in blood pressure, which leads to a lack of oxygen to the brain. It can also be caused by fainting and damage to the heart muscle or heart valves.

8. Loud snoring. Snoring is a common occurrence in sleep. Snoring is really dangerous to human health. This is because snoring can cause shortness of breath. This is called apnea in medicine. That is, due to lack of oxygen, a person suffers from diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. Therefore, snoring should not be considered a mere habit but should be treated in a timely manner.

9. Shortness of breath for no reason. Difficulty breathing is the first sign of low oxygen in the blood. Often the cause is physical activity. Lack of oxygen can be caused by poor blood circulation, which in turn can lead to heart failure.

10. Prolonged cough. In most cases, the cough is caused by a cold. If the cough does not go away within a few weeks, see a doctor. This is because prolonged coughing can complicate allergies or bronchitis. However, in some cases it is a sign of heart disease. As a sign of a cough in the heart is the release of pink or pale mucus.
