Endocarditis – Causes, Symptoms & Homeopathic Treatment

What is Endocarditis?

Endocarditis is the inflammation of the inner lining of the heart (endocardium), often caused by bacterial or fungal infections. It primarily affects the heart valves (valvular endocarditis) and can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.

🌟 Causes of Endocarditis

✅ Entry of bacteria or fungi into the bloodstream
✅ Poor oral hygiene or untreated dental issues
✅ Unhygienic dental treatments or extractions
✅ Damaged or artificial heart valves
✅ Use of contaminated injections or IV drugs
✅ Weakened immune system (like in cancer or HIV)

⚠️ Symptoms of Endocarditis

  • Fever and chills
  • Irregular or rapid heartbeat
  • Fatigue and weakness
  • Red or purple skin spots
  • Shortness of breath
  • Unexplained weight loss

💡 Preventive Measures

✔️ Do not ignore dental, skin, or throat infections
✔️ Always use sterile syringes for injections
