- Result No. 1: Heart attack. If atherosclerosis narrows the arteries surrounding your heart, or if a clot forms and prevents blood from traveling to your heart muscle, it can cause chest pain (angina) or a heart attack. This is known as coronary artery disease.

Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) When your coronary arteries are narrowed or blocked, oxygen-rich blood can't reach your heart muscle. This can cause angina or a heart attack. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when not enough oxygen-rich blood is flowing to an area of your heart muscle.

- Quick Facts. A coronary artery spasm usually occurs in an artery narrowed by fatty deposits (plaque). The spasm usually occurs very close to the blockage. But spasm can also occur in a normal coronary artery. When a coronary artery spasm occurs, less blood flows to your heart muscle. This causes chest pain (angina) that can feel like heaviness, tightness, burning, and pressure or squeezing under your breastbone. A coronary artery spasm usually occurs at rest or during sleep.

Coronary Artery Disease: Prevention, Treatment and Research This often preventable disease causes the dangerous thickening and narrowing of the coronary arteries—the vessels that bring blood to the heart—which disrupts the flow of oxygen and nutrients to the heart, causing serious problems. Without enough blood, coronary artery disease can lead to angina (chest pain). Over time, the heart has to work harder, possibly causing heart failure (when the heart cannot pump efficiently) or arrhythmia (when the heart beats irregularly or too quickly).

Symptoms of Heart Disease Symptoms of Coronary Artery Disease. The most common symptom of coronary artery disease is angina, or chest pain.

Coronary angioplasty and stents Some stents are coated with medication to help keep your artery open (drug-eluting stents), while others are not (bare-metal stents). Angioplasty can improve symptoms of blocked arteries, such as chest pain and shortness of breath.

Chest Pain Causes. Angina is usually due to heart disease. A fatty substance called plaque builds up in your arteries, blocking blood flow to the heart muscle. This forces your heart to work with less oxygen. That causes pain. You may also have blood clots in the arteries of your heart, which can cause heart attacks. Other, less common causes of chest pain include: A blockage in a major artery of the lungs (pulmonary embolism) An enlarged or thickened heart (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy)

Disease and pain In the case of hepatitis C, some patients do experience pain, but most do not. For those who experience pain, the level of pain does not indicate the severity of the hepatitis C disease. In other words, if a patient with coronary artery disease has chest pains, it could be a signal that the heart disease is worsening and that there could be a risk of heart attack.

Lupus People with lupus may have chest pain due to inflammation of the sac around the heart (pericarditis). More serious but rare effects on the heart are inflammation of the walls of the coronary arteries (coronary artery vasculitis), which can lead to angina (see Angina), and inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis), which can lead to heart failure (see Heart Failure).

- The Answer. It’s not unusual to have chest pain after coronary-artery-bypass graft surgery and it’s no wonder: In order for surgeons to access your heart, they use a surgical saw to open your sternum, and then stitch the bones back together with wire. It’s invasive, physical work.

Heart Disease (Cardiovascular Disease, CVD) Picture of a cross section of the heart. When one or more coronary arteries narrow, it may make it difficult for adequate blood to reach the heart, especially during exercise. This can cause the heart muscle to ache like any other muscle in the body. Should the arteries continue to narrow, it may take less activity to stress the heart and provoke symptoms. The classic symptoms of chest pain and shortness of breath due to atherosclerotic or coronary artery disease are called angina. Should one of the coronary arteries become completely blocked, usually due to a blood clot that forms, blood supply to part of the heart muscle is completely lost and that piece of muscle dies. This is called a heart attack or myocardial infarction (myo=muscle + cardia=heart + infarction = tissue death).

CHEST PAIN A large number of conditions other than obstructive coronary artery disease may cause chest pain. The source may be from other structures and organs within the chest, the chest wall itself, the spinal column, or the abdomen.

odd sensations in chest after stent placement odd sensations in chest after stent placement Save this for later. I have had angioplasty done and a stent placed in the artery to prevent restenosis. I have been fine since the surgery but lately I noticed some strange sensations in chest. The sensation/discomfort usually shows up when I overwork or after a long walk.

(817)334-2800 Recurrent angina (chest discomfort or heart pain) may occur during the first couple of weeks following stent implantation. Often this is due to coronary spasm. When a vessel is dilated and stretched it becomes sore and inflamed much like a cut on the skin.
