Angina is a condition that affects your heart and
cardiovascular system. It is caused by a
restricted blood flow to the heart and causes a
handful of symptoms. While it isnt usually
fatal, it can lead to more severe heart problems
such as heart attacks and strokes. Angina can,
occasionally, be a signal of something larger.
For example, coronary microvascular disease a
condition that affects the smaller arteries
leaving the heart. Interestingly, angina is a
condition that affects women more than men.

  • This article will run through all the angina
    symptoms you could expect. As with all our blog
    content about heart health, it is hoped that

  • Nausea
  • Pains in the lower chest and stomach, like
    indigestion. 
  • Fatigue
  • It is important to note that some people have
    these symptoms without chest pains. Also, each
    symptom will vary from person to person. 
  • What should I do when I experience these
    symptoms? 
  • If you are experiencing new chest pains, feel
    free to contact Venturi Cardiology, even if it is
    just for peace of mind. We especially recommend
    this if youre experiencing any of the above
    symptoms. Our experts will work to help you feel
    comforted and secure whilst giving advice on how
    to proceed.

If you have a pre-existing diagnosis of angina,
then the best thing you can do is rest. This
should alleviate your symptoms and allow you to
continue with your day. If the rest does not help
reduce the pain, then take the medication you
have been prescribed. These meds might be
glyceryl trinitrate or GTN spray. After 5
minutes, if these havent worked, take another
dose. If another 5 minutes go past without any
relief, then dont hesitate to contact your
nearest Accident and Emergency Centre.
