What Is Myocarditis?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
5. Fungi
Fungi are also everywhere, and their spores are often found floating in the air that you breathe. They are usually harmless to us and our immune systems are usually able to deal with any fungus that might find its way into our body before they can do harm. This is not always the case, however.
There are some fungi that can cause infections that can lead to myocarditis. One example of this is aspergillus, and histoplasma is another example. Candida is another example and it is a very common fungus that is probably already on or inside your body somewhere. Candida is usually harmless but it can cause problems in some cases.
