What are the causes of myocardial infarction?
Myocardial infarction is a condition that is a manifestation of coronary heart disease. Many factors contribute to coronary heart disease. Some are modifiable, while others are not. Primarily, age, underlying medical conditions such as hypertension, unhealthy habits, smoking, alcohol consumption, excess weight, and a sedentary lifestyle can all contribute to the development of myocardial infarction. Some factors are influencing our health, while others are not. Gender and age are not in our control, and genetics also play a significant role in the development of all diseases, and we can't influence genetics either. However, there are factors that we can influence, such as smoking, alcohol, a sedentary lifestyle, and excess weight.
