Myocarditis. Myocarditis occurs when a virus (or, more rarely, a bacteria or fungus) infects the body, causing an inflammation of the heart muscle. Myocarditis can also be caused by an adverse reaction to certain medicines, such as chemotherapy drugs, and exposure to some chemicals. Learn more about Myocarditis.
Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle. The most common cause is a viral infection. Rarely, mumps can cause myocarditis. Inflammation irritates the cardiac muscle and therefore it may begin to beat irregularly. Sometimes it is completely irregular Â­â when itâs known as atrial fibrillation. I have suffered this myself as a result of a viral sore throat.
