Angina Pectoris Angina pectoris is also called as angina. It refers to a recurring pain in the chest. It is a condition where there is a poor blood flow to some part of the heart. As a result, there will be heaviness, burning sensation, or uneasiness in the jaw or left arm. In truer sense angina pectoris is related to cardiac ischemia. Since there is a poor blood flow to a part of heart muscle, careful diagnosis and treatment is important. According to the American Heart Association "angina causes a feeling of squeezing or pressing pain". The pain might be extended into the arm and neck. As a result there may be difficulty in breathing or the patient may start sweating. Angina is of two types. They are stable and unstable angina. Stable angina is the most common kind. It occurs in a typical or regular pattern. But unstable angina may differ sharply from an established pattern. It may be more severe and may occur often. This kind of angina calls for immediate medical attention. Mere Terms Explained Here |
