What is First Aid Level 1?

Did You Know?
Angina vs. Heart Attack
Angina pectoris is chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart, usually due to narrowed coronary arteries. It often improves with rest or medication like nitroglycerin. However, if chest pain persists, it may signal a heart attack, which requires immediate emergency care.
