<strong>After the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention&#39;s (CDC) vaccine safety group in the US said it was looking into &quot;relatively few reports&quot; of possible link between heart problem and Covid vaccines in young people, doctors suggest people should pay close attention to possible symptoms, such as chest pain and shortness of breath.</strong></p>
<p>
However, it still remains unclear whether the vaccine is the cause of the heart problem called myocarditis, reports NBC News, quoting health experts.<br />
<br />
The report said it identified at least 55 suspected cases in the US.<br />
<br />
&quot;In recent weeks, there have been rare reports of myocarditis and pericarditis occurring after Covid-19 vaccination in the United States and Europe,&quot; the CDC had said in a statement. &quot;Reported cases appear to be mild and often go away without requiring treatment.&quot;<br />
<br />
Myocarditis and pericarditis are conditions that involve inflammation in and around the heart.<br />
<br />
Cases have been reported more often in males than in females, according to the CDC.<br />
<br />
&quot;The onset occurs more often following the second dose, typically within four days of receiving that shot&quot;.<br />
<br />
&quot;Most cases go away on their own without patients knowing they ever had the condition,&quot; said Dr Steven Nissen, chief academic officer of the Heart, Vascular and Thoracic Institute at the Cleveland Clinic.<br />
<br />
&quot;Keep in mind that Covid itself can cause myocarditis. What we have is a disease that kills people, including young people, and a theoretical incidence of myocarditis,&quot; Nissen was quoted as saying in the report on Tuesday.<br />
<br />
A number of viruses can also cause myocarditis, including enteroviruses.<br />
<br />
Manesh Patel, chief of the division of cardiology at Duke University School of Medicine, said he&#39;s only seen one possible case, which he reported to the CDC.<br />
<br />
This kind of myocarditis &quot;is usually sort of self-limiting, or improves as the heart gets better, even when it&#39;s inflamed&quot;, Patel was quoted as saying.<br />
