Sometimes, the chest pain or discomfort is also accompanied by other symptoms, like pain in the upper abdomen, back, and the neck.
Stable angina is the most common type. It occurs when the heart is working harder than usual. Stable angina has a regular pattern. If you know you have stable angina, you can learn to recognize the pattern and predict when the pain will occur. Pain usually goes away in a few minutes after you rest or take your angina medicine. Stable angina isn't a heart attack, but it makes a heart attack more likely in the future. Unstable angina does not follow a pattern. It can occur with or without physical exertion and isn't relieved by rest or medicine. Unstable angina is very dangerous and needs emergency treatment.
