10 Symptoms of Angina
Symptom #5: Excess Sweating
While it may be awkward for us at times, sweating provides an excellent evolutionary advantage as it helps us regulate our body temperature. Sweating can also aid in expelling toxins from the body, which means excess sweating could be a signal that all is not right.
Excess sweating is a common symptom of angina as the person is likely to be under considerable stress at the time of the pain and chest tightness. Excess sweating is also a symptom of a heart attack, though, so when combined with other symptoms such as chest pain, it should be taken very seriously. If you are unsure, seek medical help straight away.
