Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart that can cause symptoms such as chest pain or dizziness. The condition may arise as a complication due to some type of infection in the body.

The condition can be caused by infections, toxins or medications that affect the heart, although many cases have unknown causes.

The individual diagnosed with myocarditis must rest to avoid overexerting the heart while receiving appropriate treatment to combat the infection that caused the inflammation in the heart. In most cases, myocarditis goes away along with the original infection.
