sveticcg [70]

Answer:

In this condition Larissa is having blood vessels disorder.

Explanation:

  • Blood vessel disease is a narrowing of the arteries and veins that carry blood to and from the arms, legs and abdomen.
  • It is caused by a build-up of fatty deposits—or plaque—that narrows the vessels, depleting the supply of oxygen-rich blood to affected parts of the body.
  • The main cause is atherosclerosis, which is the build-up of fatty deposits that narrow a blood vessel, usually an artery. The narrowed blood vessel reduces the circulation of blood to the associated body part. ... When atherosclerosis occurs in arteries of the heart, it is called coronary artery disease.
