24 Health Warning Signs You Shouldn't Ignore

Under normal circumstances, some common pain and discomfort that appear on our bodies may not be a big deal, but it is also very likely that this is a warning issued by our health, and the consequences may be serious. The following are 24 warning signals that we should take seriously. If you encounter these situations, you should know what to do.

Warning 1: You feel short of breath when you don't exercise. Possible prompt: Pulmonary embolism

　　Rush to the emergency room quickly. Feeling short of breath after exercising or sitting quietly may be due to fatigue or anxiety, but if you experience sudden shortness of breath, it may be due to pulmonary embolism. A blood clot blocking the lungs may be life-threatening.

　　Other conditions that may cause your breathing to suddenly speed up, feel uncomfortable, or make you feel like you're not getting enough air include heart attacks or heart failure, both of which require immediate medical treatment.

Warning 2: Your heart keeps beating wildly while you sit still. Possible prompt: Heart attack

　　Call your doctor immediately. Although this may just be due to anxiety (watching the Indian cricket team fight for points is enough to make everyone's hearts beat wildly), palpitations can also mean a heart attack or arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm).
