He said that during treatment in Delhi, doctors told them that he had myocarditis which causes due to some virus.
What is myocarditis?
Renowned cardiologist Dr AD Bhatnagar told Free Press, "Myocarditis is inflammation of the heart muscle (myocardium). The inflammation can reduce the heart's ability to pump blood. Myocarditis can cause chest pain, shortness of breath, and rapid or irregular heart rhythms (arrhythmias).
Infection with a virus is one cause of myocarditis. Sometimes a drug reaction or general inflammatory condition causes myocarditis."
He added that severe myocarditis weakens the heart so that the rest of the body doesn't get enough blood. Clots can form in the heart, leading to a stroke or heart attack.
Most cases of myocarditis are self-resolving. Other cases recover several months after you receive treatment.
