NHS doctor Punam Krishan has raised awareness about the often overlooked signs of heart attacks in women. Unlike men, women can experience different and subtler symptoms that frequently go unnoticed, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment. Typical signs such as chest pain may not always be present; instead, women may suffer from shortness of breath, nausea, unusual fatigue, or pain in the jaw, neck, or back. Dr. Krishan stresses that increasing public knowledge about these distinct symptoms is vital to saving lives, urging both women and healthcare providers to recognize and respond promptly to these warning signs.
