Heart Attack Symptom: THIS Sign In Your Mouth Can Help In Early Detection

 

The World Health Organisation (WHO) says that almost 17.9 million lives are lost each year due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). CVDs are a group of disorders of the heart and blood vessels and include coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, rheumatic heart disease and other conditions. Heart attack, also known as myocardial infarction is a condition wherein there isn’t enough blood flow to some parts of your heart muscle.

Without blood flow, your heart muscles begin to die. If you don’t take the necessary steps to get back the blood flow, it might lead to permanent heart damage or in severe cases, death. When a person has a heart attack, blood flow to a certain part of the heart stops or it is below normal.

However, before suffering a heart attack, one tends to experience several symptoms. If you keep a check on these symptoms, the condition can be detected at an early stage and one can seek the required treatment for the condition.

Some of the common symptoms of heart attack are; chest pain or discomfort, which might feel like a pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain in the center or left side of the chest. You might also feel this pain or discomfort in your shoulders, arms, back, neck, jaw, or upper stomach. Other signs are shortness of breath, cold sweats, nausea, light-headedness and dizziness among others.

Along with this, you might also notice the warning sign of a heart attack or stroke in your mouth. Speaking on the Zoe podcast Dr Alp Kantarci said that gum disease and poor dental health can increase your risk of cardiovascular diseases.

This is because gum disease and the impact that it has on the stomach microbes and body in general had a big impact on inflammation - which puts the body in general under a lot of pressure, according to a report.

He said, “Most of the cardiovascular diseases or cardiac diseases are the results of your blood vessels, mainly aorta becoming clogged and the aorta is the major vessel coming out from your heart and distributing all the blood to that.”

The state of your mouth can have a big impact one this.

He said that the clogging of your blood vessels can be aggravated and get worse by the gum disease through two mechanisms.
