Yes, a heart attack typically causes damage to the heart muscle due to the lack of blood flow, which deprives the tissue of oxygen. The extent of the damage depends on factors such as the size and duration of the blockage, as well as how quickly treatment is administered. Even small heart attacks can lead to scarring and affect heart function over time. However, in some cases, if the blockage is quickly resolved, the damage can be minimized.
