Angina pectoris is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when your heart muscle does not get enough blood due to transient myocardial ischemia.    Angina may suffer similar to stress or a compressing pain in your chest. The pain can also arise in your arms, neck, shoulders, jaw, or back. It may also feel like indigestion. It is actually the symptom of coronary artery disease due to which blood supply is limited and due to less blood supply oxygen supply is also limited. The most common cause is ATHEROSCLEROSIS, AORTIC STENOSIS and HYPERTROPHIC CARDIOMYOPATHY.    Types of Angina:  The three types of angina are stable and unstable.  • Stable angina: It occurs when coronary perfusion is impaired by fixed or stable atheroma of coronary arteries. I.e. Patient  has fixed capacity of exertion after that he starts feeling chest pain.    • The pain frequently goes away in a very short time after you rest or take your angina medicine.    . Stable angina is not a heart attack but you may be at the risk of heart attack in future.    • Unstable angina. Unstable angina is a very dangerous condition that requires emergency treatment. It is a sign that a heart attack could occur soon.          Unlike stable angina, it does not follow a pattern. It can occur without physical exertion and is not relieved by rest or medicine.

Angina, commonly known as angina, is heart pain due to lack of blood and that's why oxygen contribute of the empathy strength, generally due to hitch or ripple of the coronary arteries (the heart's blood vessels). Coronary artery disease, the main reason of angina, is unpaid to atherosclerosis of the cardiac arteries. The expression derives as of the Greek ankhon ("strangling") and the Latin pectus ("upper body"), and can as a result be translated as "a strangling emotion in the chest".    It is common to liken severity of angina with risk of fatal cardiac events. There is a weak relationship between severity of pain and point of oxygen deprivation in the heart muscle (i.e. There can be severe pain with little or no risk of a heart attack, and a heart attack can occur without pain).    Worsening angina attacks and angina permanent more than 15 minutes are symptoms of uneven angina (usually grouped with identical conditions as the acute coronary syndrome). As these may herald myocardial infarction (a heart assault), they wish for urgent medical attention and are usually treated as a supposed heart attack.
