Plaque in the neck, specifically in the carotid arteries, can be quite dangerous as it increases the risk of stroke and cardiovascular diseases. This plaque buildup can restrict blood flow to the brain, potentially leading to transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) or full-blown strokes. Regular monitoring and lifestyle changes, along with medical interventions if necessary, are crucial for managing this condition. If you suspect plaque buildup, it's important to consult a healthcare professional for assessment and guidance.
