Only once or twice occasionally, there is a stabbing pain in the chest, and the pain position is blurred, and it can be cured in a few seconds. It should not be coronary heart disease or angina pectoris, but the pain caused by myocardial ischemia and hypoxia lasts for a long time. If there is a tingling or burning sensation, it is probably intercostal neuralgia, and the pain radiates along the intercostal nerve;
Chest diseases such as rib fracture and pleurisy can cause chest pain; Esophageal diseases such as gastroesophageal reflux and esophagitis can cause chest pain; Respiratory diseases such as pulmonary embolism and pneumothorax can also cause sudden chest tingling.
If the cause of chest pain has not been found, it is probably cardiac neurosis, which is common in young women, that is, cardiovascular symptoms caused by autonomic nerve disorder. In addition to chest pain, it is accompanied by anxiety, mood swings, palpitation and chest tightness and shortness of breath.
It is worth noting that there is a sudden tearing pain in the chest, which radiates to the back. It is highly suspected that aortic dissection will be life-threatening if it is not rescued in time.
1, the symptoms of chest pain get worse after exercise.
Some patients with myocardial infarction have no typical symptoms before onset, but may have back pain, toothache, jaw pain and stomach pain, especially when the symptoms of chest pain worsen after exercise, so we should be alert to myocardial ischemia.
2. The frequency of chest pain increases and it is difficult to relieve.
Patients with angina pectoris and coronary heart disease have more chest pain and more severe pain, which is difficult to relieve. Nine times out of ten, myocardial infarction is coming. Especially in the past, taking a piece of nitroglycerin under the tongue can relieve symptoms, but now taking a few pieces is useless.
3, chest tightness and palpitations
No heart disease, but sudden chest tightness, palpitation, palpitation and other symptoms; When resting, I feel suffocated and it is extremely difficult to breathe; Chest pain symptoms appear at a fixed time every day, most likely myocardial ischemia, so you should go to the hospital as soon as possible for relevant examination and treatment.
4. Dizziness, fatigue and palpitation after fatigue.
Overwork or lack of sleep can lead to palpitations, general fatigue, headache, dizziness and so on. It is probably a nervous system disease or a cardiovascular disease.
5. vague
Patients with heart disease are very likely to have sudden death after syncope. The heartbeat suddenly slows down or stops, which causes insufficient blood supply to the brain and causes syncope. As long as patients with heart disease have experienced syncope once, they should choose a regular hospital for a perfect examination to see what caused it.
skill
All in all, there is only a brief chest pain, which lasts only a few seconds. The pain is not very severe and there is no basic disease, so don't worry, just pay more attention to rest at ordinary times. However, it is also necessary to distinguish angina pectoris from myocardial infarction. If there is pain in the posterior sternum and precordial region, presenting asphyxial or squeezing pain, and the pain is aggravated after emotional excitement, overwork, overeating and forced defecation, angina pectoris or myocardial infarction should be highly suspected.
The chest pain caused by angina pectoris lasts for a short time and can be relieved by taking nitroglycerin under the tongue or after rest. If the pain lasts more than 15 minutes, it is useless to take 3 tablets of nitroglycerin under the tongue. Please call 120 for emergency treatment, which is likely to be a myocardial infarction.
