In general, various
diseases that attack the heart such as coronary heart disease or heart failure
are caused by different factors and show different symptoms. However, because
it involves the same body organs, usually heart problems will show general characteristics.
What are the heart problems that need to be watched out? Here's the full
information.
Get to know various types of heart disease and symptoms
Before knowing what heart
problems are problematic, it helps you to know the various types of diseases
associated with these vital organs. Identifying the type helps you make a
decision or immediately seek the best treatment.
Handling the symptoms of
heart disease at the right time can also reduce the risk of death and increase
the chances of recovery and recovery.
Heart attack
Heart attack is a
condition that occurs when oxygen-rich blood flow is suddenly blocked into the
heart muscle so that the heart does not get oxygen.
If blood flow is not
restored quickly, the heart muscle will begin to die. The usual symptoms of a
heart attack are sweating, shortness of breath, rapid or irregular pulse, and
nausea.
Arrhythmia
Arrhythmia is a heart
disorder characterized by abnormal beats or rhythms, can be too fast, too slow,
or irregular. Arrhythmias occur when electrical impulses do not function.
Symptoms include slow or
fast heartbeat, chest palpitations, chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness,
sweating, fainting, palpitations (heartbeat such as being missed and pounding),
chest beat, shortness of breath, chest pain to weakness or fatigue.
Atrial fibrillation
Atrial fibrillation or
atrial fibrillation is the most common type of arrhythmia. Lower heart or
ventricular space pumping faster than normal causes an irregular heartbeat,
such as being lost or can not disappear.
If untreated, the risk of
complications such as stroke, heart attack or heart failure will increase.
Symptoms of heart disease
atrial fibrillation include palpitations (palpitations), tightness, extreme weakness,
chest pain, dizziness or fainting, weakness, and becoming dazed.
Heart valve disease
Heart valve disease is a
condition in which one or more heart valves do not function properly. Damage to
the heart valve can cause many other heart problems, such as hypertension and
heart failure.
Symptoms include
shortness of breath, palpitations, fatigue, pain and discomfort in the chest,
dizziness, fainting, headaches, coughing, rapid weight gain, and swelling of
the ankles, feet, or abdomen.
Heart failure
Heart failure is a term
used to describe the condition of a heart that cannot function properly and
does not pump blood throughout the body efficiently.
This causes the blood to
be slower to move throughout the body. As a result, thickening of the heart chambers
occurs.
The longer, the heart
muscle will weaken. Symptoms include shortness of breath during activity or
rest, extreme fatigue, and swelling of the legs, ankles, stomach, or lower back
area.
Pericarditis
Pericarditis is swelling
and irritation of the pericardium. The pericardium is a membrane around the
heart that functions to hold the heart in place.
This inflammation causes
wounds and thickening of the pericardium, so the heart can constrict. This
risks causing other complications such as reduced blood flow from the heart to
cause death.
Symptoms of heart disease
include piercing chest pain, fever, palpitations, and shortness of breath.
In general, these are various signs of heart problems
In general, there is one
problematic heart sign commonly experienced by people, namely chest pain (also
called angina).
Chest pain or pain occurs
when pain arises which makes it uncomfortable, severe, such as pressure,
burning, feeling full, and unbearable pain.
In addition to the chest,
pain can sometimes also be felt on the shoulders, arms, neck, throat, jaw, even
back.
Almost all symptoms of
heart disease are characterized by chest pain. Therefore, you need to be
careful if your chest feels depressed and sore.
However, it turns out
that the symptoms of heart disease can also occur without chest pain. Common
symptoms are:
•
Sweating too much
•
Difficulty breathing
•
Easily weak and not powerful
If you feel one or more
signs of a problematic heart above, immediately seek medical help. The faster
the symptoms of heart disease are dealt with, the faster your chances of
recovering and avoiding dangerous complications.
