One Month Before A Heart Attack, Your Feet Will W.arn You Of These 6 Signs (Page 2 ) | August 8, 2025

1. Cold Feet or Toes

Consistently cold feet, even in warm environments, may signal poor blood flow.

A weakened heart may not pump blood efficiently to the extremities.

2. Swelling (Edema) in Feet and Ankles

Puffy, swollen feet and ankles could be due to fluid retention caused by heart failure.

Often worse at the end of the day or after sitting for long periods.

3. Discoloration (Blue, Purple, or Pale Feet)

A bluish or purplish tinge can signal low oxygen delivery.

Pale or ashen feet may indicate decreased blood flow.

4. Numbness or Tingling

Reduced circulation can cause pins-and-needles or numb sensations.

This may worsen with activity and improve with rest — a possible sign of peripheral artery disease (PAD), often linked with heart disease.

5. Sores or Wounds That Don’t Heal

Poor circulation may prevent the body from healing even small cuts.

Chronic ulcers or slow-healing wounds on the feet are a red flag, especially in diabetics.

6. Pain When Walking (Claudication)

Aching or cramping in the feet or calves during walking may indicate PAD.

This is a strong predictor of future cardiovascular events, including heart attacks.

❗ Important Note:

These signs don’t always mean a heart attack is coming, but they do suggest your cardiovascular system could be compromised.

✅ What to Do If You Notice These Symptoms:

– See a doctor promptly, especially if symptoms are new or worsening.

– Monitor other heart attack warning signs, such as chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or dizziness.

– Get screened for blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, and heart function.
