77.929 -> #1 A cough that won't stop
A persistent cough can be a symptom of various
85.399 -> health problems, and cardiovascular disease
is one of them.
90.039 -> Chronic cough for example, mainly when it
produces bloody fluid, is prevalent in people
94.78 -> with heart failure.
96.82 -> This sign may mean that a person's heart is
not pumping blood as well as it should, so
100.84 -> the body is not getting enough oxygen because
it is carried to the tissues by the blood.
106.27 -> #2 Chronic or sudden fatigue
Fatigue can be one of the main symptoms that
112.09 -> indicate a possible heart attack.
115.249 -> Women are more likely to experience heart-related
fatigue than men.
119.78 -> For example, almost 70% of female heart attack
patients, report feeling extremely tired before
125.7 -> a heart attack.
127.65 -> It is hard for this symptom to go unnoticed
because sometimes even simple things, like
132.251 -> making the bed or taking a shower, are exhausting.
136.45 -> #3 Nausea and anorexia
Many people with heart disease experience
141.77 -> loss of appetite, nausea, or both, even after
eating just two bites.
147.32 -> This feeling is because fluid may have built
up around the liver and intestines, interfering
152.05 -> with proper digestion.

by abdominal pain, an upset stomach, or feeling
159.89 -> bloated.

intervals are common signs before a heart
165.58 -> attack.
166.78 -> #4 The skin turns pale or takes on a bluish
tint
171.7 -> Being generally pale does not necessarily
mean that the heart is not functioning correctly.
177.51 -> But sudden pallor can result from reduced
blood flow due to a heart not pumping blood
182.08 -> as efficiently as it should.
184.22 -> Also, sudden shocks that any situation can
cause may prevent proper blood circulation.
190.94 -> Blood dysfunction is a significant reason
people who experience a heart attack or heart
195.27 -> failure die suddenly.
197.73 -> #5 Pain radiating down the arm
Many men feel pain in their left arm when
203.51 -> the heart is not working correctly.
205.65 -> While usually, women feel pain in one or both
hands.
210.84 -> Many women even report that they felt elbow
pain before a heart attack.
215.51 -> This feeling usually happens because the heart
pain travels to the spinal cord, where many
219.87 -> nerves connect.
221.96 -> This means the brain gets confused, thinking
that the arm hurts when the main problem may
226.07 -> be in the heart.
227.82 -> #6 Swollen feet and ankles
When our heart does not function properly,
233.85 -> the necessary blood does not reach the body.
236.99 -> Thus, blood and fluid can pool in other parts
of the body, causing swelling in the feet
242.12 -> and ankles.
244.18 -> Heart or kidney failure are common causes
and usually apply when swelling occurs in
248.52 -> both ankles and feet.
250.71 -> However, leg swelling can be due to many other
causes, such as a liver problem, an injury,
256.32 -> a pregnancy, high blood pressure, or even
if you sit for a long time.
261.19 -> #7 Sudden anxiety and extreme stress levels
A multitude of studies from various cardiology
268.36 -> associations worldwide, state that people
who experience extreme situations and stress
273.11 -> levels, especially young ones, are more likely
to develop coronary heart disease.
279.31 -> Excessive stress in various everyday situations
can create anxiety, panic attacks, or fear.
285.84 -> Many of these conditions have a significant
impact on our hearts.
290.289 -> They can cause tachycardia and abnormal heartbeats,
gradually causing coronary artery disease
295.68 -> and heart problems.

304.21 -> by the American College of Cardiology, showed
that eczema and herpes are high-risk factors
309.169 -> for the development of heart attacks.
312.27 -> People who experience eczema are 48% more
likely to suffer from high blood pressure.

are 59% more likely to have a heart attack
328.229 -> than those without spots.
330.409 -> #9 Difficulty breathing
It is better not to assume that shortness
335.63 -> of breath is simply a poor physical condition
matter.
339.52 -> Unexplained shortness of breath with simple
activities may indicate a heart problem.
345.139 -> If you climb 25 stairs, you will not breathe
easily.
349.44 -> But climbing five stairs and not being able
to catch your breath, could indicate a future
353.86 -> heart problem.
355.639 -> #10 Feeling of increased heart rate
When we mention "palpitations," we mean heartbeats
362.12 -> that become irregular or fast.
365.27 -> Most elevated pulses are harmless because
stress, excessive caffeine intake, or even
370.27 -> dehydration can be the source.
373.37 -> But sometimes, the feeling of increased pulses
indicates an early heart failure or another
378.11 -> heart issue.
379.9 -> It is important to note when you feel these
heartbeats, how often they happen, and what
384.169 -> you did before they started.

TV and your heart suddenly beats irregularly
391.539 -> or fast, immediately talk to your doctor.
395.129 -> What to do if you notice the warning signs
of early heart failure
399.349 -> The Mayo Clinic Foundation, which is a non-profit
organization dedicated to clinical practice,
404.689 -> education, and research, states:
"As soon as you spot one or any signs that
410.639 -> indicate a possible heart malfunction, you
should act immediately."
415.28 -> Some people wait too long to call their doctor
because they don't recognize the critical
419.25 -> signs and symptoms.
421.659 -> Or simply because they think it will "never
happen to them"!
