Angina is chest pain or discomfort felt when the heart muscle doesn't get enough blood flow — and so not enough of the oxygen the blood carries.
How it can feel
- pressure or a squeezing pain in the chest;
- something like indigestion;
- pain in the shoulders, arms, neck, jaw or back.
Why it happens
Angina is a symptom of coronary artery disease (CAD), the most common heart disease. In CAD, a sticky substance called plaque builds up in the arteries that supply the heart, reducing blood flow.
Three types
| Type | When it happens | What helps | How serious |
|---|---|---|---|
| Stable | when the heart works harder than usual; follows a regular pattern | rest and medicines usually help | the most common type |
| Unstable | no pattern; can come on without exertion | does not go away with rest or medicine | the most dangerous — a sign a heart attack could come soon |
| Variant | at rest | medicines can help | rare |
Not all chest pain is angina — but if you have chest pain, see your health care provider.
