Cardiovascular diseases include diseases of the heart and blood vessels like heart attack and stroke.
Blood vessels that supply blood to the heart are known as coronary arteries. When there is a hindrance in the normal flow, heart attacks and heart diseases (coronary heart diseases) are likely to occur.
Blood vessels supplying blood to the brain are called cerebral arteries. Any constriction in this flow is likely to result in a stroke or a cerebrovascular disease. |
