Is angina painful and does it cause shortness of breath?

Angina actually means pain coming from the heart, and it may be associated with shortness of breadth. It is important to seek prompt medicat care to prevent death; because if there is significant compromise of blood supply to the heart, it could cause death. It is rare in a 20 year old unless there is drug use like cocaine or birth defect of the heart.

It is chest or arm or neck pain that comes on with exercise and stops when you rest a min or two. Can be associated with shortness of breath. But not needed to define angina. The exercise time and type tends to be the same to bring it on. Would be rare at your age.
