Identify the signs and symptoms of Heart Attack.
(i) Wet, clammy skin
(ii) Chest pain
(iii) Joint pain
(iv) Yellow discoloration of eyes
Choose the most appropriate option from below :
Answer: C
The signs of heart attack are (i) and (ii), so the answer is Both (i) and (ii) are correct.
A heart attack typically causes chest pain, a crushing or squeezing pain that may spread to the left arm, jaw or back. The body's stress response also brings on sweating with wet, clammy skin, along with breathlessness, nausea and anxiety.
Joint pain is a feature of arthritis and other joint disorders, and yellow discoloration of the eyes is jaundice, a sign of liver disease or haemolysis. Neither is a sign of heart attack, so the options including (iii) or (iv) are wrong.
