Detailed explanation-1: -Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle (myocardium). The inflammation can reduce the heart’s ability to pump blood. Myocarditis can cause chest pain, shortness of breath, and rapid or irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias). Infection with a virus is one cause of myocarditis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart tissue, specifically the myocardium, the middle layer of the heart wall. Myocarditis affects your heart’s electrical system and muscle cells, leading to irregular heart rhythms and problems with your heart’s pumping function.

They may feel these symptoms gradually over time, or their symptoms may happen very quickly. People with myocarditis in more advanced stages may show symptoms of heart failure.

Detailed explanation-4: -Myocarditis is classified as acute, fulminant, chronic active, or chronic persistent. [1] Acute myocarditis constitutes most cases of myocarditis (65%) and is mainly caused by a viral illness. It may less commonly be caused by non-infectious etiologies.

Detailed explanation-5: -Myocarditis. Myocarditis is inflammation of the myocardium-the heart muscle. This inflammation can also cause other changes to the heart muscle cells that may be acute (short term) or chronic (long term).
