Question : what cause Plaque and Angina?
Brief Answer:
I would explain as follows:
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Regarding your concern, I would explain that atherosclerotic plaque and angina are related to the accumulation of cholesterol in the blood vessels, causing them to narrow and have a low blood flow to the heart and other tissues.
This is related to cardiovascular risk factors such as uncontrolled arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, diabetes, etc.
I remain at your disposal for any further questions whenever you need.
Kind regards,
Dr. Iliri
