Myocardial infarction, commonly known as a heart attack, occurs when blood flow to a part of the heart muscle is blocked, often by a blood clot, leading to tissue damage. Symptoms include chest pain, shortness of breath, sweating, and pain radiating to the arm, neck, or jaw. Immediate treatment is critical and typically involves medications to dissolve clots, procedures like angioplasty to restore blood flow, or surgery, along with lifestyle changes and medications to prevent recurrence.
