Conclusion
Atherosclerosis can begin in childhood, gradually hardening and narrowing the arteries over time. The majority of cases are seen in older people. Symptoms only appear when it begins to limit circulation. Researchers are still trying to understand what triggers the development of this disease and develop more effective treatments, but current treatments can help manage it. If you experience symptoms of this disease, you should see a doctor. Early treatment can help delay or prevent serious complications.
