"In many cases, myocarditis improves on its own or with treatment, leading to a complete recovery. Myocarditis treatment focuses on the cause and the symptoms, such as heart failure.
In mild cases, persons should avoid competitive sports for at least three to six months. Rest and medication to help your body fight off the infection causing myocarditis might be all you need. Although antiviral medications are available, they haven't proved effective in the treatment of most cases of myocarditis."

Originally posted by Sour Masher View PostWell, he is on the IL because of COVID, so the threat of reinfection is small. But I believe he will not be cleared to come back. I looked up myoocarditis, which is the complication he developed from COVID, on the mayo clinic site and is explicitly states, you will probably be fine with rest and medication, as long as you do not engage in sports for 3-6 months. That is in mild cases, mind you. By all accounts, Erod's case is mild, but still, 3-6 months is what the Mayo Clinic says, even for mild cases.
