A 49-year-old Indian man, who suffered a heart attack while working on a ship off the coast of Ba Ria - Vung Tau, survived thanks to timely intervention after being brought ashore.
Fleeting chest pain lasting a few seconds, accompanied by stress, is usually harmless. Pain lasting more than 30 minutes and spreading to other areas may signal danger.
Tightness, heavy pressure in the chest radiating to other areas, accompanied by shortness of breath, dizziness, sweating, and pain during rest or sleep, can be signs of a heart attack.
