A member asked:
Is there a relation between myofascial problems to heart muscle problems?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes: The heart is a muscle. Diseases that affect muscles affect the heart muscle. We use the term myofascial for soft tissue conditions. If the condiction is localized to a particular muscle or group of muscles most likely has nothing to do with the heart.
