Myocarditis refers to an inflammatory disease of the heart muscle. Its symptoms are diverse and may vary from person to person. The main manifestations include:
1. Cardiac symptoms: Patients often experience palpitations, chest tightness, rapid or irregular heartbeat. In severe cases, symptoms such as cardiac enlargement and heart failure may occur.
2. Systemic symptoms: Accompanied by systemic symptoms of viral infection such as fever, fatigue, and muscle pain. Some patients may experience difficulty breathing, pallor, or cyanosis.
3. Other symptoms: Depending on the severity of the condition, serious symptoms such as arrhythmia, syncope, and even shock may also occur.
If myocarditis is suspected or any discomfort arises, prompt medical attention should be sought.
