Ravi Kiran

Pericarditis is a medical condition characterized by inflammation of the pericardium, the sac-like membrane that surrounds and protects the heart. This condition can manifest as acute or chronic, with various causes and clinical presentations. Pericarditis often presents with chest pain, which can be sharp, pleuritic, and worsened by deep breathing or changes in body position. Other common symptoms include fever, fatigue, and shortness of breath.
