Pericarditis

Pericarditis is an inflammation in the pericardium, causes severe pain while inhaling and exhaling. The pain gets worse when you lay down and eases when you bend over. The pericardium is the protective layer around the heart. Pericarditis is not fatal, but will last months without proper treatment.
