Bornholm disease, also known as epidemic pleurodynia,[1] is a condition characterized by myositis of the abdomen or chest caused by the Coxsackie B virus or other viruses.[2] The myositis manifests as an intermittent stabbing pain in the musculature that is seen primarily in children and young adults.[3]
It is named after the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea where an outbreak was one of the first to be described.
