@medtok.01: 🫀 Plaque Formation in Arteries Plaque formation, also called atherosclerosis, occurs when fatty substances such as cholesterol, along with other materials, accumulate inside the walls of arteries. Over time, the plaque can harden and narrow the artery, reducing blood flow. If a plaque ruptures, it may trigger a blood clot and potentially cause a heart attack or stroke. Key stages: 1. Damage to the artery lining 2. Cholesterol and other substances accumulate 3. Plaque gradually grows 4. Artery becomes narrowed and less flexible 5. Reduced blood flow or clot formation can occur Educational purpose only. #medical3D #viralreels #foryou #unfreezmyaccount #shorts
