Symptoms of heart attack in children

If your child feels heaviness or pain in the chest, do not ignore it. Especially if such pain occurs during any physical activity, contact the doctor immediately. Many times people ignore it thinking it is gas pain.

If your child starts panting while doing light exercises or climbing stairs and has difficulty in breathing, then this also indicates a problem in the heart. Although, sometimes this happens due to lack of blood in the body or weakness, but it is wise to contact a doctor.

If the child is feeling weak without any reason, is feeling dizzy and fainting frequently, the heartbeat is increasing, then this also indicates heart disease. If the child is drenched in sweat during physical activity, is vomiting, then you also need to be alert.

If you notice that your child's lips, fingers and skin are turning blue, this also indicates a serious heart problem. This happens when the heart is unable to pump the right amount of blood, causing a lack of oxygen in the body.
