Heart attacks or myocardial infarctions are caused by blockages of the coronary arteries or the blood vessels that provide the blood supply to the heart muscle itself.
Coronary arteries are the vessels that provide blood supply to the heart muscle itself. If they are blocked or damaged, a heart attack may result.
Chest pain after a heart attack or during a heart attck is caused by constriction of the blood vessels. Your heart needs blood to survive and when the vessels constrict, it limits bloodflow to your heart. This causes intense pain--that is why you are given nitroglycerin tablets. Nitro opens the vessels.
No. Arteriosclerosis is the progressive narrowing of the blood vessels that leads to a heart attack.
When your heart vessels are damaged they prevent the amount of blood being pumped around the body to be sent to the muscles etc. during active sports Your body needs blood(oxygen) during active sport and if you cannot receive it due to a damaged heart valve you will lack vital oxygen for your muscles during sport
A heart attack or myocardial infarction.
increased heart rate & blood pressure, damaged blood vessels in the brain that can cause an irregular heartbeat that can cause cardiovascular collapse or death, permanent damage to blood vessels of the heart, & heart attack.
So a heart-attack is a result of a block artery. This blockage can prevent blood flow to the muscle of the heart. If this is the case, the muscle ca become damaged. So to answer your question, the vessels are not necessarily getting damaged during a heart attack. It's the muscle. However there are three vessel the supply the heart with blood. Below is each vessel and the muscle wall that could be damage in a heart-attack. Right Coronary Artery(RCA): Inferior wall Left Anterior Descending (LAD): Anterior Wall Curcumflex(Cx): Lateral wall

High cholesterol can definitely cause heart attack. As cholesterol accumulate in vessels, the cholesterol start to accumulate, clotting the vessels and blocking and reducing the diameter of the vessels. This cause the heart to be obligated to pump blood harder, exercing stress on the heart and potentially causing heart attack.!!
