Angina




Angina is caused by narrowing of the coronary arteries. Usual treatments include medication to lower your cholesterol level, and low-dose aspirin to help prevent a heart attack. Also, medication can ease and prevent angina pains. In some cases, angioplasty or surgery are options to widen, or to bypass, narrowed arteries.
