During a heart attack, one of these plaques can rupture and
spill cholesterol and other substances into the bloodstream. A blood clot forms
at the site of the rupture. If large enough, the clot can completely block the
flow of blood through the coronary artery.
Another cause of a heart attack is a spasm of a coronary artery
that shuts down blood flow to part of the heart muscle. Use of tobacco and of
illicit drugs, such as cocaine, can cause a life-threatening spasm. A heart
attack can also occur due to a tear in the heart artery (spontaneous coronary
artery dissection).
Nice blog! One can consult Dr. Sujay Shad, the best cardiac surgeon in Delhi, for any heart health related problems at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital. He has also won many praises for his outstanding work in the fields of cardiology and heart surgery.
