Causes of rheumatic myocarditis

Rheumatic myocarditis may be related to disease factors, genetic factors, bad living habits and other factors.

1. Disease factors

Rheumatic myocarditis is mainly caused by human infection with group A hemolytic streptococci. When it involves myocardial interstitial connective tissue, it can cause rheumatic myocarditis.

2. Genetic factors

If there are elders in the family suffering from rheumatic myocarditis, the incidence of rheumatic myocarditis in the offspring will be higher than that of normal peers.

3. Bad living habits

If the patient often stays up late, overworked, leading to low immunity of the body, and often in a cold and humid environment, it is easy to infect group A hemolytic streptococci, which will increase the incidence of rheumatic myocarditis.
