Pain is a feeling that warns us that something has gone wrong in the body. We usually figure out what it's about very quickly. But if the pain comes suddenly, lasts longer than usual, or seems different than usual, then it becomes a reason to go to the doctor. Experts from yahoo.health warn of symptoms that we must not ignore: Chest pain
If people could better understand the subtle signs sent by our heart, they could avoid a number of serious problems. Studies have shown that women experience more varied heart attack symptoms than men. There are three universal warnings that something is not right, and both men and women feel them. It's chest pain that doesn't go away, shortness of breath, and any pain in the upper body for which we don't have a logical explanation. If you experience any of these three symptoms, go to the doctor immediately - don't wait.
Very strong headache
It can be a sign of a migraine, but if it is not accompanied by other migraine symptoms, a sudden headache may indicate a brain aneurysm. An aneurysm is an abnormal expansion of blood vessels. A cerebral aneurysm is an abnormal expansion of a blood vessel in the brain. A blood vessel can burst, which quickly becomes life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. "It can cause brain damage in a matter of minutes, so you should call your doctor immediately after the onset of this extremely severe pain," advises Elsa-Grace Giardina, a physician at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Columbia University Medical Center. Painful 'knocking' in the tooth
There is probably damage to the dental nerve. If you did not repair the damaged tooth enamel in time, the bacteria multiplied and decay occurred. If you neglect going to the dentist because of your fear of the dentist, remember that it's not just the tooth that rots. Bacteria from the teeth spread through the bloodstream and damage the heart and lungs. Sharp pain in the side
If you feel as if something is seriously "stabbing" you on the right side of your abdomen, you feel nauseous and have a fever, you may have appendicitis. In women, there is another possibility - an ovarian cyst. Cysts are usually not dangerous and disappear on their own, but if they burst, they cause severe pain. In both cases, urgent surgical intervention awaits you. If you don't operate on an inflamed appendix, it can burst. The problematic cyst should also be removed immediately, because within a few hours it can disrupt the blood flow in the ovaries.
Abdominal discomfort accompanied by bloating and gas
In the last month you have been feeling unusually bloated. In addition, you don't have the appetite you used to have. If it's new symptoms, at worst you have ovarian cancer. Among the early symptoms of ovarian cancer, the American Association of Gynecologists included bloating, pain in the area of the back part of the stomach and problems with appetite. If you feel these symptoms almost every day for more than two or three weeks, you have been warned. Make an appointment with a gynecologist and inform the doctor about the observed symptoms. Pain in the back and tingling in the fingers
If you recently dug in the garden or moved furniture, don't worry. If the pain does not stop, you may need to see a physiatrist. Maybe a pinched nerve in the spine. If you don't fix the lichen, you could have permanent nerve damage. Leg pain and swelling
Your joint is particularly sensitive in a certain place, visibly swollen, red and warm. You may have deep vein thrombosis. Also known as a blood clot. Do not massage the area or try to relieve the pain by walking for a long time. If the clot is released, it will travel through the veins and can end up in the lungs and stop the flow of oxygen. See a doctor immediately. A CT scan or ultrasound will show what it is.
