Progressive Angina treatment in Benito Juárez

Progressive angina is a form of angina pectoris whose episodes of chest pain or pressure appear with greater frequency, intensity, or with increasingly smaller efforts. It reflects a change in the usual pattern of the discomfort.

Usual manifestations: Tightness or pain in the chest that may spread to the arm, neck, or jaw, at times with shortness of breath.

When to see a doctor? A change in the frequency or intensity of chest pain should be evaluated promptly, since it indicates that the condition is evolving.

Which specialist treats it? The cardiologist is the professional who studies progressive angina and its origin. If you notice that the discomfort in the chest is becoming more frequent or intense, seeking care without delay is the most prudent thing.
