A heart attack, scientifically called myocardial infarction, occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart is blocked, usually due to a blood clot. This cuts off the oxygen supply to the heart muscles and can result in tissue damage and potentially life-threatening complications. What is scary is that a heart attack can occur suddenly, without any warning signs. So, it is always wise to stay aware of the state of your heart health.
