What causes angina pain?

My husband sometimes complains of a sharp pain in his chest, especially when he walks fast or climbs stairs. The doctor said it might be 'angina'. What causes this kind of pain?

Angina is caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles, which is very serious. While taking garlic and warm water daily helps with general cholesterol, please don't rely on home remedies for chest pain. Go to a hospital immediately.

Haan na, angina is really scary and usually happens when heart blood vessels get blocked. If someone in the family has chest tightness, we must not ignore it as simple gas. Better to consult a cardiologist quickly.

All those years of eating heavy butter chicken and street food can unfortunately build up cholesterol and block your arteries, causing angina. It is a major wake-up call to start eating healthy and consult a heart specialist.

I am not an expert on heart issues, but I know that hormonal imbalances can also sometimes affect cardiovascular health. If you are experiencing chest pain, please get an ECG done immediately to rule out anything risky.

I have been feeling a mild tightness in my chest when I walk fast lately. Is this how angina starts? Has anyone else felt this same symptom before getting diagnosed? I am quite worried.
