According to a WHO report, it is estimated that by 2030, there will be over 23 million annual deaths from cardiovascular diseases.
The most dangerous thing about heart disease is that people blame it on pollution, a bad diet, or an unhealthy lifestyle, while in fact, the reason is that many people don’t act fast enough as soon as symptoms show up.
Moreover, most symptoms aren’t always obvious or severe, as well as they vary from one individual to another.

1- Dizziness and shortness of breath
If you’re not suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease or asthma, then breathlessness can be a sign of heart disease.
Not only shortness of breath but also dizziness can be a symptom of heart disease.
You need to pay close attention to how often it happens and seek a doctor’s help when in doubt.
2- Sickness
Feeling sick, vomiting, indigestion, and stomach pain can also occur during a heart attack.
So you should never ignore any feeling of sickness, especially if it is frequent.
3- Pressure
Pressure is an unpleasant feeling in the chest, it can be described as if something is tightening around your chest or is pressing so hard.
This pressure can be a symptom indicating a heart issue.
4- Chest Pain
You need to be specific about where the pain is coming from because not every chest pain is linked to the heart.
According to a research at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences College of Nursing, heart-related chest aches are often located in the center under the breastbone, which is a bit to the left of the center.
