Heart is a four-chambered, muscular pump about the size of an adult fist. Normally, the heart beats 60 to 100 times per minute, pumping blood throughout your body with each beat.
Inflammation of the heart middle layer muscle myocardium is known as myocarditis.
This inflammation enlarges and weakens the heart, creates scar tissue, disturb heart’s electrical system, reduces its ability to pump and forces it to work harder to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body.
