Patient's question:
Two years ago, I had myocarditis due to a fever. This time, it was caused by a cold. What is the best way to treat it? Is it good for the body to keep getting IV drips? How long does it usually take to recover?Doctor's answer:
Acute viral myocarditis patients may experience fever, sore throat, cough, and general malaise. Loss of appetite, abdominal discomfort, nausea, and vomiting, etc. Severe cases can lead to chest tightness, shortness of breath, palpitations, coughing up white foam sputum, and inability to lie flat. In severe cases, sudden death may occur. If this condition recurs, it is recommended to seek treatment at a large, reputable hospital. Specific situations still require judgment based on the doctor's guidance.
