Atherosclerosis :

Atherosclerosis is a poorly maintained condition of the arteries in which the inner walls get narrowed and hardened by laying down fatty deposits, cholesterol, and other materials known collectively as plaques. It will block the flow of blood through the involved arteries and may cause very serious health complications such as heart attack, stroke, and any form of cardiovascular disease. High cholesterol and hypertension are the main risk factors of atherosclerosis. Other more common risk factors are smoking, diabetes mellitus, and diets that are saturated with fats and sugars. These agents result in progressive, lumenthreatening damage to the arteries and the intima is most at risk for plaque formation. Age and family history are also factors of risk in more ways than one from the viewpoint of an ordinary man.Atherosclerosis develops very slowly, taking decades. For its part, it may be symptomless in the early stages of development. Increased blockage of the arteries may depend on which body part is affected. In case the heart's arteries are blocked, it causes chest pain (angina) or leads to a heart attack. An abnormality of this category may include the blood vessels to the brain become obstructed and therefore a person dizziness stroke like symptoms. Inability to walk caused by obstructed arteries in the legs are usually painful and may often be associated with pain experienced while walking.The treatment of atherosclerosis involves some life-altering modifications. Modifications in lifestyle, drugs, or very rarely, medical interventions are included. The diet becomes heart-friendly, the exercise becomes regular, smoking is quit, and ways of dealing with stress are improved. Doctors can prescribe some medicines to red uce cholesterol levels, blood pressure, or prevents a tendency of clots forming. This is a treatment involving angio-plasty interventions for the expansion of the arteries if the patient's condition is acute. However, the abnormal flow to the limb can be rectified by bypass surgery. In this aspect, cure for the patient is improved since complications are eliminated completely when they are detected and treated early.
