Chest pain is normal or a symptom of heart attack, understand the reality from cardiologist, useful information

Dr Nityanand Tripathy Explain heartburn vs heart attack: Differentiating between normal chest pain and acidity pain is not a matter of everyone. Hardly anyone knows this thing among the common people. Usually people remain confused in this matter. Sometimes the pain of acidity is considered as chest pain or sometimes chest pain is considered as acidity. By the way, when someone is going to have a heart attack, then gradually there is a lot of pain, so people think that it is a normal pain which will get cured slowly but this is the biggest mistake. Although some people get heart attack even without chest pain.

Dr. Nityanand Tripathi, Senior Cardiologist and Electrophysiologist, Director of Cardiology Department at Fortis Hospital New Delhi, says, all types of chest pain cannot be a heart attack, but it is necessary to see a doctor for what is causing the pain. ECG or some other test will tell whether the chest pain is related to heart attack or not.

Difference between heart attack pain and normal pain
Electrophysiologist Dr. Nityanand Tripathi says, “If there is angina i.e. normal pain in the chest, then it comes very fast in the form of a sharp pain but gets cured by sitting. Along with this, this pain does not last for a long time and it increases while standing or walking, but it reduces after resting. Apart from this, this pain also increases after eating food or walking in cold weather. But then this pain also gets cured by sitting or taking rest. On the other hand, heart attack pain is completely different. When there is chest pain due to heart attack, there is constant pain. In some cases, the pain can last for more than half an hour. Along with the pain of heart attack, some other symptoms start in the body. In these, some people have pain in the jaw and some people have pain in the hand. Apart from this, different types of symptoms are seen in different people even after heart attack. Even some people may have pain in the upper part of the stomach. He feels like it is gas pain but prolonged pain is the strongest sign of heart attack pain.

Do all people have pain before heart attack
Dr. Nityanand Tripathi told that there may be no pain in some people. They get heart attack without any pain. Although some other types of symptoms are visible. In such people, breathlessness starts or they feel that the stomach is full of gas or there is bloating. Heart attack can also occur in these situations. Dr. Tripathi told that therefore, if there is any kind of pain, they must get ECG, cholesterol level, TMT done. If the ECG does not detect it, then other tests are done.

Sugar, BP patients have problems
People who are diabetic, smoker, whose BP is increased, they are more at risk of heart attack. It may also happen in them that there is an atypical chest pain. That is, there should be a different type of pain than normal pain. In this, the patient may feel pain while sitting or there may be some pain after eating food. Such people should get ECG, Echo and TMT done. From this it will be known whether heart attack has happened or not or if there is blockage in the artery then how much is it. If the patient had a heart attack and gradually got better but he did not go to the doctor, then the disease does not reduce, but in that case the possibility of sudden death increases in such patients. This can happen with any patient. That’s why one must go to the doctor if there is continuous pain in the chest.
