Answer:

MEANING

A heart attack is a medical emergency. A heart attack usually occurs when a blood clot blocks blood flow to the heart. Without blood, tissue loses oxygen and dies.

A heart attack occurs when one or more of your coronary arteries become blocked. Over time, a coronary artery can narrow from the buildup of various substances, including cholesterol (atherosclerosis). This condition, known as coronary artery disease, causes most heart attacks.

CAUSES:

Chest Pain, Pressure, Fullness, or Discomfort.

Discomfort in other areas of your body.

Difficulty breathing and dizziness.

Nausea and cold sweats.
