What does it mean when your doctor says you have angina?
- Diagnosis. Angina is a symptom of an underlying heart problem, usually coronary heart disease (CHD).

What is the difference between stable and unstable angina?
- Stable angina and unstable angina are caused when one or more of the coronary arteries are narrowed or blocked and blood flow to the heart is not adequate. Prinzmetal’s angina and microvascular angina are caused by spasms in arteries that feed the heart, resulting in heart pain and discomfort.
How does ischemic heart disease cause angina?
- Two types of ischemic heart disease can cause angina. Coronary artery disease happens when plaque builds up inside the large arteries that supply blood to the heart. This is called atherosclerosis. Plaque narrows or blocks the arteries, reducing blood flow to the heart muscle. Sometimes plaque breaks open and causes blood clots to form.
