How long does a heart attack last if untreated?
My uncle passed away recently, and he didn't get medical help in time. It makes me wonder, how long does a heart attack last if someone doesn't get any treatment for it?

Honestly, for a heart attack, there's no question of 'untreated'. You absolutely must get medical help immediately. Home remedies are for small things, not for something this serious. Every second counts to save the heart muscle.
A heart attack isn't something that has a fixed duration if left untreated. The damage to the heart muscle starts right away. The longer it goes without treatment, the more severe the damage, which can be fatal. Immediate hospital visit is the only way.
A heart attack is a medical emergency, so it cannot be left untreated. The faster you get to the hospital, the better the outcome. Diet definitely helps in prevention, but once symptoms appear, immediate medical care is the only way.
If untreated, the damage continues and it can be deadly very quickly. This is not something to take lightly. Afterwards, if doctor allows, maintaining a good fitness routine is crucial for heart health, but first, immediate medical attention is non-negotiable.
Untreated? Boss, then it's less about 'how long' and more about 'how bad' the damage gets, or, you know, 'how long till you need to meet your maker'. Please, if you even suspect something, run to the hospital, don't wait for a review!
