    Arteritis refers to the inflammation of the walls of the arteries, which are the blood vessels that carry oxygenated blood from the heart to the rest of the body. This inflammation can lead to the thickening, weakening, narrowing or scarring of the arteries, potentially causing disruptions to blood flow or even blood vessel blockages. Arteritis can affect arteries of any size in any part of the body, and can potentially lead to serious health complications including organ damage or stroke. It is often caused by autoimmune conditions, infections or certain medications.
