Worried about blocked arteries or heart complications? Early action saves lives. With expert care, you can reduce plaque, improve blood flow, and protect your heart and limbs. Simple steps today prevent serious problems tomorrow.
Why Arterial Health Matters?
Atherosclerosis occurs when plaque builds up inside your arteries, narrowing them and restricting blood flow. This can lead to heart attacks, strokes, or peripheral artery disease. Early diagnosis and management are critical to prevent severe complications and improve overall cardiovascular health.
What is Atherosclerosis Management?
Atherosclerosis management focuses on reducing arterial plaque, improving blood flow, and preventing cardiovascular events. This includes lifestyle modifications, medications, minimally invasive procedures, and, in advanced cases, surgical interventions.
