Silent heart attack: Hidden signs and symptoms that are likely to go unnoticed

Hindustan Times  

Every disease communicates its presence is some way or the other by way of signs and symptoms like fever, ache and pains, nausea et al. The symptoms of silent heart attacks are so mild or vague or brief, that people may confuse them with other health issues and often start self-treating instead of getting the required tests for heart health. Additionally, individuals who experience silent heart attacks often have underlying risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or diabetes. Certain health conditions, such as chronic kidney disease, peripheral artery disease, or a history of stroke, can increase the risk of silent heart attacks. Diabetes is a significant risk factor for heart disease, and individuals with diabetes have a higher likelihood of developing cardiovascular complications, including silent heart attacks.
