Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain or discomfort due to coronary heart disease. It occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get as much blood as it needs.

Angina usually causes uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing or pain in the center of the chest. Person may also feel the discomfort in the neck, jaw, shoulder, back or arm.
