Common heart attack symptoms

• Chest Discomfort: This is the most common symptom, but it doesn't always feel like sharp pain. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or aching in the center or left side of the chest. It may last for more than a few minutes or go away and return.
• Discomfort in Other Areas: Pain can spread beyond the chest to other parts of the upper body. This includes one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.
• Shortness of Breath: Difficulty breathing can occur with or without chest discomfort.
• Other Signs: These can include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea, lightheadedness, or feeling unusually tired or weak.

• Differences in heart attack symptoms between men and women
• Men: Are more likely to experience classic chest pain, radiating pain down the left arm, sweating, and stomach discomfort or indigestion.
• Women: May experience atypical symptoms like unusual fatigue, anxiety, sleep disturbances, dull pain or discomfort in the neck, back, jaw or stomach, nausea, or shortness of breath, according to Franciscan Health. They are also more prone to silent heart attacks, where symptoms are absent or very mild.
