The manner in which the incidence of heart attacks has been increasing in the last few years. This disease can happen to people of any age. Nowadays it is being seen that people of 20-30 years of age are also having heart attacks. Even seemingly fit people are having heart attacks. People are dying due to heart attack while dancing, working out, walking. But the question arises that what is the reason behind this?
According to the news published in TV 9, cardiologist Dr. Sanjay Kumar says that the main causes of heart attack are patients suffering from diseases like obesity, bad lifestyle, high BP, diabetes etc. These patients have increased risk of heart attack. Doctors say that after the age of 45, men are at risk of heart attack, while after the age of 55, women are at risk of heart disease. One should avoid doing heavy workouts after the age of 45. After the age of 45, you should reduce your workout. Because excessive exercise can increase the risk of heart attack.
With increasing age, a person’s ability to work starts decreasing. When people exercise or exercise aggressively after the age of 45, the risk of heart disease increases significantly. Due to this the heart pumps blood at double the speed. Due to this the risk of heart attack increases.

What should be done after a heart attack
If someone in front of you has a heart attack, then first of all make him lie down straight on a flat place. If a person has become unconscious, check the pulse. If the pulse is not felt at all then understand that the person has suffered a heart attack. Because in a heart attack the heartbeat stops, hence a pulse cannot be found. It is necessary to revive his heart within two to three minutes, otherwise his brain may get damaged due to lack of oxygen. In such a situation, if a heart attack occurs, immediately punch the chest hard. Beat him until he regains consciousness. With this his heart will start working again.

Give CPR to unconscious person immediately
If someone has become unconscious and there is no pulse, then immediately give him CPR with your hands. Mainly two tasks are done in CPR. First is to press the chest and second is to give breath through the mouth which is called mouth to mouth respiration. Place your palm in the middle of the first person’s chest. While pumping, place the palm of one hand on top of the other and lock the fingers tightly and keep both hands and elbows straight. After that the chest is compressed by pumping the chest. By doing this the heartbeats start again. Press the chest with the palm for 1-2 inches. Do this a hundred times in a minute.
