What is heart attack? |

Friends, as we all know that our body is consists of different organs which perform their specific functions in our bodies. Among them, heart is an organ which plays a vital role in pumping the blood to all parts of the body. The ways through which the heart pumps the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood are known as the arteries which are cylinderical structures composed of soft tissues.
So, the heart attack is a condition occurs when these arteries blocked due to the build up of fats in the form of plaque. When these arteries blocked, the blood pressure increases which increase the pressure on the walls of heart and the heart muscles start breaking as the oxygenated blood can't reach there which results in the heart attack.
What are the three symptoms of heart attack? Explain it |

Yes, one of the major symptoms of heart attack is the severe pain in the chest area, that pain leads towards a pressure and tightness in chest which spreads in the arm, neck and to the stomach also. All these things happen within a very shorter interval of time. Then, the people feels dizziness, lose their control and fell suddenly. That is a very fatal condition as most of the people can't bear that extreme pain and die. Besides them, the other symptoms of heart attack are including the:
- Shortness of breath

Also, smoking increase the risks of heart attacks as it affects and damage the cardiovascular system very badly. Smoking have the following bad affects on our cardiovascular system;
It damages the blood vessels and promotes the build up of plaque on the arteries and blood vessels.
