Is it normal for 20-year-olds to have occasional angina pectoris?

Angina is a disease caused by insufficient blood supply to the coronary arteries, including stable angina, unstable angina and variant angina. Angina is not normal in humans, so occasional angina at 20 is abnormal. Medical tests such as physical examination and blood test are needed to determine the cause.

A healthy lifestyle can help control angina, including quitting smoking, limiting alcohol consumption and reducing saturated fat and cholesterol intake. If angina attacks occur, stop activities immediately to prevent worsening discomfort.
