The man who did not survive a sudden heart attack: Do not ignore when you see signs of back pains

Mr. Chen (53 years old, from China) suffered from back pain for 10 days. The pain occured every 5-6 minutes and several times a day. However, he thought that it was only due to the cold weather that caused the pain.

Therefore, he just used ointment to apply to the pain without any attention. However, after that his pains didn’t stop and he still had frequent pain. Until one day, Mr. Chen felt sleepy and had suddenly bad back pain along with sweat, chest tightness, shortness of breath. Then he fell to the ground.

His family called an ambulance to take him to the hospital. However, the doctors said that they couldn’t measure his blood pressure and they had to give him blood pressure medication. At the same time, Chen was given an electrocardiogram. The initial diagnosis was that he had an acute myocardial infarction.

On the way to the hospital, Mr. Chen’s heart stopped, so the doctor performed CPR. However, in the end, he passed away.

In fact, myocardial infarction is not uncommon. According to experts, myocardial infarction in young people is more dangerous than that in the elder.

The reason is that atheroma in young people is more unstable and easy to fall off. Therefore, once the atherosclerotic plaque suddenly ruptures and forms a thrombus, it can lead to a complete occlusion of the blood vessel. This results in myocardial infarction.

Furthermore, compared with the elderly, the underlying vascular lesions in the young were milder before the onset of the disease. During a myocardial infarction, the heart cannot initiate self-protection ability. Therefore, early learn of the risk factors of young people is very important.
