Neurologist, osteopath Alexander Yevdokimov: back pain may, among other things, indicate myocardial infarction.
The doctor said in an interview that back pain is not always due to some pathology. But if the pain is persistent, this is an alarming sign.
“If the discomfort does not go away for three days, then you should consult a doctor, because there are a lot of diseases that they can talk about,” – a specialist told kp.ru.
Neurologist Evdokimov warned that back pain sometimes becomes a harbinger of a heart attack. At the same time, it may not be felt as strong.
