In right-sided congestive heart failure, the common symptom is peripheral congestion and edema. This means that due to the heart's inability to effectively pump blood, fluids can build up in the body, leading to swelling in the extremities such as legs and ankles.
On the other hand, myocardial infarction refers to a heart attack caused by blocked blood flow to the heart muscle. Suffocation is not a common symptom associated with right-sided heart failure. Coronary atherosclerosis is a condition where plaque builds up inside the arteries, leading to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle.
Pulmonary congestion and edema are typically seen in left-sided heart failure, where fluid backs up into the lungs rather than accumulating in the peripheral areas of the body.
