A heartbeat is considered rapid, or tachycardia, when the resting heart rate exceeds 100 beats per minute in adults. this can occur due to physical exertion, stress, fever, or underlying medical conditions.
Shortness of breath, or dyspnea, is the uncomfortable sensation of not being able to take in enough air or breathe deeply, often described as tightness in the chest or “air hunger.” it can range from mild and transient to severe and life-threatening.
Sudden shortness of breath can result from acute conditions such as asthma attacks, pulmonary embolism (blood clot in the lung), heart attack, pneumothorax (collapsed lung), or severe allergic reactions. immediate medical attention is needed if it comes on quickly and is severe.
Not always. a rapid heartbeat from exercise or temporary stress is usually harmless. however, persistent or unexplained tachycardia could indicate a heart or metabolic issue and should be evaluated by a doctor.
Sit or lie down immediately, stay hydrated, avoid sudden movements, and rest. eating small, regular meals can help if dizziness is due to low blood sugar.
Not always. many fainting episodes are harmless, especially in young people. however, if it happens frequently or without warning, it may signal a heart or neurological issue and should be checked by a doctor.
