What is coronary artery disease?

Coronary artery disease develops when the major vessels that supply blood to your heart become narrowed or blocked. It's usually caused by plaques building up in your coronary arteries and by inflammation, which narrow the arteries and reduce blood flow.

Coronary artery disease can slowly develop over decades. That means signs and symptoms often aren't noticed until there's a significant blockage or a heart attack. Symptoms of coronary artery disease include chest pain, shortness of breath and heart attack.
