alt=Atherosclerosis

It refers to an obstruction in the coronary artery, triggered by the accumulation of plaque. It is a leading risk factor for a variety of heart complications like aneurysms, CAD, and heart attack.

alt=Stroke

The condition is marked by the restricted blood supply to the brain owing to an obstruction in the arteries carrying blood to it. It can be caused by an underlying medical condition or a traumatic injury that results in the formation of a clot. Most stroke symptoms are debilitating. 

alt=Heart Attack
