Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a common condition that occurs when the blood vessels supplying blood to the heart become blocked due to the buildup of fat, cholesterol, and other substances. This blockage can lead to reduced blood flow to the heart, causing angina (chest pain) and, in more severe cases, heart attacks.

• Chest pain or discomfort (angina).
• Shortness of breath.
• Pain or discomfort in other areas such as the shoulders, neck, back, or jaw.
• Unexplained fatigue.
• Cold sweats.

• Atherosclerosis: Buildup of plaque in the arteries.
• Genetic factors: Family history of heart disease.
• Unhealthy diet: High in cholesterol and saturated fats.
• Smoking: Increases the risk of heart disease.
• High blood pressure: Damages the arteries.

• Lifestyle Changes: Healthy diet, regular exercise, and quitting smoking.
• Medications: Statins and antihypertensive drugs can help control symptoms and prevent complications.
• Medical Interventions: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) or stenting may be necessary.
