Atherosclerosis is a condition where fatty deposits, or plaques, build up in the arteries, leading to narrowed and hardened blood vessels. Symptoms can vary and may include chest pain, shortness of breath, or even none until a serious event like a heart attack or stroke occurs. Treatment typically involves lifestyle changes, medications to lower cholesterol and blood pressure, and procedures to improve blood flow, such as angioplasty or stenting.
