Signs as: Understood by the medical community mean objective findings. As such, signs may not be present. Symptoms, on the other hand, are subjective, viz., pain, pressure, discomfort at the front part of chest , sometimes radiating to arm, jaw, stomach area and commonly during physical exertion. It can also happen while resting. About 40-50% of CAD do nit have symptoms until heart attack actually occurs.
