Why do I always feel my heart beating fast?

The average person's heart beats 60-100 times per minute in a normal resting state. Sometimes the heart beats suddenly very fast. It may be due to changes in weather conditions, mood, emotions, stress, diet, etc. It may also be due to accelerated hyperactivity of the vagus nerve. You can monitor yourself. If your heart rate is within the normal range, you don’t need to be too anxious or worried. If it is beyond the normal range, you need to go to the hospital for targeted examinations.

A fast heartbeat is what we call tachycardia in medicine. When an adult's heart rate exceeds 100 beats per minute, it is called tachycardia. Tachycardia is generally divided into two types: physiological and pathological. Physiological tachycardia is when the heart rate increases, for example when running, drinking, doing heavy physical labor, or being emotionally excited. This is generally called physiological tachycardia. Generally, the heart rate will return to normal after rest, and no treatment is needed. There is also fever, high fever, anemia, hyperthyroidism, bleeding, pain, or hypoxia, heart failure, heart disease, etc. These are pathological tachycardia and require relevant examinations. If the cause is heart disease, an electrocardiogram and echocardiogram should be done. If it is due to other reasons, routine blood tests, thyroid function and biochemical electrolyte tests, etc. should be done. Only in this way can we determine the cause of the tachycardia and provide targeted treatment.

Eat fruits, vegetables, lean meat, soy products, etc. Avoid greasy, raw, cold, salty and spicy foods, and avoid tobacco and alcohol. People of different ages have different heart rates. The younger the age, the faster the heart rate. If the heart rate exceeds the normal range, it is called a tachycardia. The accelerated heart rate caused by illness is most common when you have a fever. For every 1°C increase in body temperature, the heart rate can increase by 10 to 15 beats per minute. Therefore, diseases that can cause fever will often result in an accelerated heart rate, but typhoid patients are an exception. The pulse of typhoid patients is relatively slow, which is called a relatively slow pulse. This is an important characteristic of typhoid. Pneumonia, asthma and other diseases affect heart function. When heart failure occurs, there will be symptoms such as rapid heart rate, rapid enlargement of the liver, rapid breathing, and blue lips. In children with severe anemia, the heart rate will also increase to meet the body's need for blood supply. A fast heart rate may also occur when taking drugs such as atropine and epinephrine. Diseases of the heart itself, such as myocarditis, pericarditis, etc., can also increase the heart rate. A fast heart rate will generally return to normal as external factors are eliminated and the disease improves (such as fever subsiding, anemia improving, and heart function returning to normal). When taking medications that can affect your heart rate, be aware of your heart rate. If your heart rate continues to be too fast, you should consult a doctor. The normal pulse rate of an adult at rest is
