[Latin, quinsy, from Greek ankhonē, a strangling.]
anginal an·gi'nal adj.Paroxysmal thoracic pain and choking sensation, especially during exercise or stress, due to partial blockage of a coronary artery (blood vessel supplying the heart), as a result of atherosclerosis.
A gripping, vice-like pain in the chest which sometimes extends down the left arm. It is induced by increases in physical exertion and relieved by rest. The pain usually lasts about 15 minutes. Angina is a symptom of heart disease. It results from a narrowing of the coronary arteries which reduces the oxygen supply to heart muscle. Pain is produced when the heart muscle does not receive enough oxygen to cope with its workload. A controlled programme of physical activity can benefit angina sufferers, provided it is performed under medical supervision and at a safe level. The appropriate level is usually determined by an exercise test on a cycle ergometer or a treadmill in the presence of a doctor.

A spasmodic, choking pain. The term is sometimes applied to the disease producing the pain (for example, Ludwig’s angina).
