What is the likelyhood of a 22 year old to have heart issues, with no family history, good blood pressure, active and healthy diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Most issues that would affect a 22 yo heart are the birth defect variety, which you would be well aware of. any person at any age could get a virus that attacks the heart and causes an injury to the heart muscle. These can self heal or cause death. You don't get pain from the heart at 22, since the pain would come from plugged blood vessels of older folks. So your answer depends on many variables.
