Atherosclerosis is one of the most serious diseases of the arterial system that is characterized by accumulation of cholesterol in the blood vessels and causes human suffering.

There are several types of arteriosclerosis, which is accompanied by certain symptoms:

Most often, atherosclerosis goes hand in hand with these ailments. The patient has problems breathing or simply shortness of breath. Also, he can feel the pain in the heart, that by itself should get him to go to the doctor for help.
Atherosclerosis of the extremities
Atherosclerotic vascular disease of the hands and feet leads to very sad consequences, up to gangrene and amputation of the limb. The first signs of atherosclerosis of the limbs doctors call the skin discoloration in certain areas, as well as pain. Another patient may suddenly begin to limp or experience terrible discomfort at the time of physical activity.
Atherosclerosis of the mesenteric arteries
The disease leads to ischemia of the colon. With this diagnosis a person will feel severe pain in the abdomen. This disease can be deadly if not seek help from doctors.
