Q: death by heart attack and face color changes
asked by: adnan152 on August 26th, 2009

I want to know, are there any changes on face color after death by heart attack, one of our relatives died but not sure death was due to heart attack or not, she had never a heart attack or heart problem before. But we guess death was due to heart attack. Her face color was changed to dark red/black after 5, 6 hours of death. This is my main question face color changes have relations with death by heart attack?

Did this person passed away while leaning forward and with the head being the lowest point? Blood usually settles in the lowest part of the body and can look dark red/black. I had the same happen to a friend who collapsed at night and died after falling on his knees with his face forward on the floor.
