Approximately 60 million Americans have <a href="http://kylenorton.aanbhip.hop.clickbank.net/">heart disease</a>. There are many causes of heart disease. Anything that serves to damage the inner lining of blood vessels and impedes the transportation of oxygen and nutrition to the heart can be defined as a risk of heart disease. There are many types of heart diseases and we will discuss heart disease affecting heart lining in this article.<br /><br />Heart disease resulting from inflammation of either the endocardium or pericardium is called <a href="http://kylenorton.aanbhip.hop.clickbank.net/">heart disease</a> affecting heart lining.<br /><br />Endocardium is the inner layer of the heart. It consists of epithelial tissue and connective tissue. Pericardium is the fluid filled sac that surrounds the heart and the proximal ends of the aorta, vena vava and the pulmonary artery.<br /><br /><div>1. Endocarditis<br />Endocarditis, which is an inflammation of the endocardium is caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream and settling on the inside of the heart, usually on the heart valves that consists of epithelial tissue and connective tissue. It is the most common <a href="http://kylenorton.aanbhip.hop.clickbank.net/">heart disease</a> in people who have a damaged, diseased, or artificial heart valve. Symptoms of endocarditis include fever, chilling, fatigue, aching joint muscles, night sweats, shortness of breath, change in temperature and a persistent cough.<br /></div><br />2. Pericardium<br />Pericarditis is the inflammation of the pericardium. It is caused by <span class="AABody"><span class="AABody">infection of the pericardium which is the thin, tough bag-like membrane surrounding the heart.</span></span> The pericardium also prevents the heart from over expanding when blood volume increases. <span class="AABody"><span class="AABody">Symptoms of pericarditis include chest pain,</span></span> mild fever, weakness, fatigue, coughing, hiccups, and muscle aches.<br /><a href="http://kylenorton.aanbhip.hop.clickbank.net/">Or Click here for more information</a><br /><span class="AABody"><span class="AABody"> </span></span><br />I hope this information will help.
