How to treat frequent chest pain caused by unstable angina?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello. My constitution has really been poor since I was a child, and my body often has various kinds of ailments. The more serious one is unstable angina pectoris, where my chest often hurts, and my throat also aches when it recurs. How should this be treated better?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to the situation you described: First, unstable angina may be caused by plaques in the coronary arteries, leading to their narrowing and thus insufficient blood supply to the heart. If this issue is not addressed promptly, it could potentially progress into a heart attack. Therefore, it is recommended to visit the cardiology department in a timely manner. Coronary angiography can be performed, and if the stenosis is particularly severe, a stent can also be placed.
