Symptoms of Angina: Summary

It is important to understand the symptoms of angina. However, not all chest discomfort is a symptom of angina. For example, acid reflux (also known as heartburn), a panic attack, lung infection, or inflammation can also cause chest pain. However, because angina can be quite serious, if you have possible angina symptoms for the first time, call 911 immediately. For those people with a history of angina symptoms, make sure to talk with your doctor about what to do when symptoms occur. He or she is in the best position to understand your particular situation and give recommendations.
