Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I've been feeling discomfort in my heart. Although I take medication regularly to control it, the effect isn't significant. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they also prescribed medication. How should I treat a heart attack?Doctor's answer:
A heart attack is treated through surgical intervention to remove the embolism and restore blood flow, or by administering medications to control platelet aggregation and anticoagulation. If a blood clot detaches and accumulates, obstructing blood flow to the heart, it can lead to myocarditis. Therefore, it is necessary to open up the blood vessel, which is the primary treatment method. Additionally, medications that support heart health are often prescribed for better outcomes. Regular control of platelet aggregation is also required.
