Surge In Heart Attacks Among Pakistani Youth Sparks Health Crisis

Heart

A shocking rise in heart attacks and sudden cardiac arrests among young Pakistanis is sounding alarm bells across the country. Medical experts say poor lifestyle choices and delayed diagnosis are putting lives at serious risk — and it’s the youth who are paying the highest price.

The tragic death of a schoolteacher during a lecture has brought national attention to a growing crisis. Cardiologists report that one in three heart patients is now under 40, while half of the 30–50 age group suffers from high blood pressure, and over 30% have diabetes — both major contributors to heart failure.

Doctors warn that early symptoms are often brushed off, and by the time patients seek help, it’s already too late. Regular screenings and timely checkups could prevent most of these deaths, yet awareness remains dangerously low.

Unhealthy eating habits, lack of physical activity, digital addiction, and rising mental stress are fueling the problem. Experts are calling for urgent lifestyle changes and mandatory CPR training in schools and workplaces to handle emergencies better.
