Bloodrush In Head, Warm Sensation, Heart Pounding, Nervousness, Inhaled Fumes From Massageoiles. What Can It Be?
Hello. My friend last night experienced two episodes of sudden bloodrush to the head, felt very warm and his heart pounded like crazy. It made us both nervous. The first time I thought it could be because he had accidently inhaled fumes from massageoiles, but the second time he was just lying on the couch relaxing. It went 5-6 hours between these two episodes. What can it be? He is good health normally, 22 years old.

Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
Based on the symptoms, we should exclude a diagnosis of cardiac arrhythmia (abnormal heart rate or rhythm). This can be done by tests such as ECG and Holter monitoring. Please consult a cardiac electrophysiologist or a cardiologist for evaluation.
As of now, there is no need to worry.
Please get back if you require any additional information.
