    Description Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart wall. Myocarditis can affect both the heart's muscle cells and the heart's electrical system, leading to problems with the heart's pumping function and irregular heart rhythms. Myocarditis can also be caused by viral infections or systemic inflammatory conditions such as additional autoimmune disorders. In severe cases of myocarditis, the heart muscle weakens and cannot pump blood effectively to other parts of your body. There are 3 types of myocarditis: acute, chronic, and lymphocytic.

    Acute myocarditis is usually caused by a viral infection and can develop suddenly and resolve quickly. Chronic myocarditis takes longer to treat and occurs due to more general inflammatory conditions such as autoimmune diseases. Lymphocytic myocarditis is a rare form of myocarditis and tend to occur after a virus when white blood cells enter and cause inflammation in the heart.
