What is an "attack"?

An attack refers to the sudden and severe start of a disease or a symptom. It often shows up with intense and quick symptoms that can be very serious or life-threatening. For example, a heart attack involves a sudden blockage of blood flow to the heart, resulting in chest pain and other symptoms. Similarly, an asthma attack involves sudden narrowing of the airways, leading to difficulty breathing. Treatment for attacks typically involves urgent medical attention to ease symptoms and prevent further problems.
