Why Are My Carotid Arteries In Different Diameters?
One of my carotid arteries has become larger than the other. I have had an ultrasound, but have been told there is nothing to worry about. I am very slim already and pretty active, but should I cut down on dairy products (yogurt, butter)? Many thanks, Liz

Hello,
It is just a normal variant and does not indicates any specific disease conditions. Nothing to worry and no definite treatment is required either.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
