Types Of Angina Pectoris

There are two main types of angina: they are as follows:

• Stable angina

  The attacks occur due to obvious triggers (such as exercise) and improve with medication and rest. Such a condition is known as "stable angina." People with stable angina pectoris feel a constant rhythm in the beating of their hearts and can predict when an attack of chest pain will occur.

• Unstable Angina

  While in unstable angina, the attacks are unpredictable, occurring with no obvious trigger and continuing despite resting.
