Which arm is in pain during a heart attack, left or right?

Answer 1

Sometimes if your lucky the left arm also center chest,abdominal pains and even pain in the jaw bones,that's where my pain was and my brother was in his chest and left arm.Some people mostly diabetics won't even have a symptom before an heart attack.Any pain in the upper part of your body that hurts when exerting yourself and eases up when you rest is a sign of heart problems.My Dr. told me most people suffer and die from heart attacks because they have these symptoms and they are in denial that it could be there hearts causing the pain and never get checked until its to late.Better safe than sorry.If you have little short pains in the arm or chest that just last a few seconds its usually not your heart.

Well first off to answer your question the pain that some people have in their arm(s) during a heart attack is a referred pain. Referred pain is when you experience in one part of your body when the problem is really in another part of your body. Good examples of this would be how some people who have an appendicitis will complain of pain in their right shoulder. Or will complain of pain in there left abdomen. Secondly and more importantly is the fact that you stated that you have significantly higher b/p in your right arm compared to your left arm. This is something you need to report to your doctor right away. Significantly differing B/P in the arms is a sign of a possible aortic aneurysm. An aneurysm is a ballooning of a blood vessel due to weakening of the vessel wall. If an aortic aneurysm ruptures, that is it you will be dead in a matter of a couple seconds. The fact that you have hypertension also supports the diagnosis of an aneurysm. Good Luck!
