A person has pain in the chest on walking. He is alright in stationary condition. Which type of pain is this?

Pain in the chest while walking but not in a stationary or at-rest position could be indicative of angina. Angina is a type of chest pain caused by inadequate blood flow to the heart muscle due to blockage or narrowing of the coronary arteries—the vessels that supply oxygenated blood to your heart. It typically occurs during physical exertion when your demand for oxygen increases and can’t be met by your impaired coronary arteries. In addition to exercise, it can also occur as a result of emotional stress, cold temperatures, heavy meals and after smoking.

Angina usually presents itself as pressure or tightness in the chest behind the breastbone area that can spread to other areas such as other parts of the upper body (arm, shoulder) and down one arm. Other common symptoms include shortness of breath and fatigue; both are side effects from reduced circulation to the heart muscle due to blocked coronary arteries.

If you are experiencing these symptoms it is important that you seek medical attention right away as angina could indicate something more serious such as atherosclerosis, which is hardening and narrowing of arterial walls prohibiting adequate blood flow throughout the body including but not limited too: stroke ,heart attack ,kidney failure ,peripheral arterial disease  ,and so on . Your doctor will likely perform stress tests such as an EKG (electrocardiogram) or treadmill test called Treadmill Stress Test with imaging study like CT Coronary Angiography, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), etc., if necessary in order diagnose any underlying causes causing cardiovascular issues when walking is present but not felt at rest . If complications do arise treatment may involve lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking nutrition modification exercising regularly etc., medications e.g stretchers , beta blockers nitrates alternative therapies like omega-3 supplementation aspirin therapy surgical procedures e.g Balloon Angioplasty Stent Placement Bypass Surgery  depending upon severity stage diagnosis .
