Then, chew or crush\u00a0and swallow an aspirin as directed by a doctor. Taking aspirin immediately at the\u00a0onset of heart attack symptoms may prevent the formation of additional small blood\u00a0clots blocking blood flow through clogged arteries. If that happens, heart muscle\u00a0damage may be prevented or delayed, which can buy you time to get to the Hospital.<br \/>\nNever make excuses for heart attack\u00a0symptoms or shrug them off as simply &#8220;indigestion.&#8221;\u00a0Even if you&#8217;re not sure it&#8217;s a heart attack, don&#8217;t hesitate to get help.
