How Can Increased Heart Rate Problems Be Treated?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? My friend broke her ribs 3 years ago, ever since then she is having increased heart rate problems, up to 300 per/min, and it's getting worse. She has had her heart stopped 3 times now and nobody seems to have a solution. I am getting worried for her because now it's been ongoing for a few weeks now. Any ideas? I would appreciate any kind of help you could offer.

Hi,

Heart rate around 300 is quite high and it is definitely abnormal. Make sure that the reading is correct. You can consult a cardiologist and detailed evaluation is needed to rule out conditions like arrhythmia.Keep in mind that severe pain can cause high heart rate, but 300 per minute is not normal.

Hope I have answered your query.
