Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling uncomfortable in my heart. Although I often take medication to control it, the effect is not obvious. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. Could you please tell me what the early symptoms of heart disease are?Doctor's answer:
Heart disease generally manifests early symptoms such as chest tightness and chest pain, a feeling of shortness of breath and suffocation. Some individuals may experience palpitations, such as a rapid heartbeat, which are all signs of heart disease. The diagnosis primarily depends on the type of heart disease. Most early-stage heart diseases involve sudden palpitations or a sensation of insufficient blood supply to the heart, leading to weakness and a feeling of tightness in the chest.Through careful examination of the electrocardiogram (ECG) and echocardiography, heart problems can be largely confirmed. Additionally, the most common method of cardiac percussion can be used for preliminary judgment and speculation. Of course, cardiac percussion is only a preliminary understanding, and it is not very accurate to speculate on the specific location of inflammation.
