Angina pectoris, commonly referred to as just "angina", is chest pain caused by ischemia, or shortage of oxygenated blood supply, to the heart muscle. Unlike a heart attack, angina does not result in permanent damage to the heart muscle.
Angina is a pain or discomfort in the chest that is often felt has a squeezing or pressure-like feeling. This discomfort can also be felt in the shoulders, arms, neck, jaws, or back. Anginal pain usually lasts for no more than 2-10 minutes. It is relieved by rest or nitroglycerin. It is commonly found in the chest area. Angina is usually a sign of coronary artery disease(CAD). It occurs when the blood vessels leading to the heart are blocked. The blockage decreases the blood and oxygen flow to the heart muscle. When the heart muscle is deprived of oxygen you will feel chest pain and other symptoms.
Angina is discomfort or pain in the chest because certain muscles of the heart don't get enough oxygen-rich blood.
