Should you exercise if have angina?

Yes, but with precautions. Angina is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. Exercise can help improve circulation and reduce angina symptoms, but it's important to consult a doctor before starting any exercise program. Begin with low-intensity activities like walking and gradually increase intensity and duration as tolerated. Avoid sudden, forceful movements and always carry your prescribed nitroglycerin medication in case of chest pain during exercise.
