Mysql select .. how to chose index

Hello Experts,
I have a table with 140 thousand records
and a simple select like:

SELECT * FROM TBL_TRE_CO2 WHERE PAT_COD =12728

field pat_cod is the second index (not automatic increment which is the first index)

takes 5 seconds which is too much for each query
then I executed EXPLAIN  showing there is "no possible keys", and "  No keys"

how can I force the select to use a certain index?

Best regards,
