What are the early symptoms of atherosclerosis?

Atherosclerosis usually has no obvious symptoms in the early stage.

Atherosclerosis is a slow progressive disease, mainly occurring in the large and middle arteries. It does not cause adverse effects on body organs in the early stage, so it generally has no obvious symptoms. As the disease progresses, it can lead to vascular stenosis, which in turn causes poor blood circulation and causes ischemic symptoms in body organs, such as dizziness, headache, chest tightness, chest pain, etc.

If the patient has the above symptoms, he suspects that he has atherosclerosis, he can go to the hospital for relevant examinations to confirm the diagnosis, such as physical examination, blood examination, ultrasound examination, etc.
