Stable angina is caused by a blockage in the arteries, affecting blood supply to the heart. It is characterized by short episodes of chest pain that go away on their own. It may be triggered by physical exertion and/or stress. Risk factors include high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, and smoking.
Stomach pain or tummy ache in a specific place
Feeling breathless
Chest pain
Left-sided chest pain
Previous or active smoker
Pain across my entire chest
Chest discomfort with exercise

Your doctor may ask these questions to diagnose stable angina
Do you have abdominal (stomach) pain in any particular location?
Are you breathless or having hard time breathing?
Do you have any chest pain?
Do you have left sided chest pain?
Do you currently smoke, or have you ever smoked in the past (including electronic cigarettes)?
Treatment involves medications to relieve pain during an episode. Surgery and other procedures may be needed to treat the artery blockages. Treating or controlling risk factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol with medication and a healthy lifestyle is important.
