Is It Normal For Heart To Skip A Beat Due To A Blockage In Right Ventrical, Cardiologists Consider It Normal?

My son has been diagnosed with an irregular heart beat and he is very aware when his heart skips a beat. he has seen a cardiologist and was advised that this is normal for him. We then had a follow up with the GP and I asked questions regarding the echogram which showed that he has a right ventrical which is blocked so when the blood pumps into the heart it may skip a beat because it has to find another way of pumping into the blood. both the cardiologist and gp said that this is normal for him, but he is concerned and so am I. Should we be concerned, and should we get another opinion.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern but you are under the wrong impression that is not the physiological function of the blood circulation as you understood, skipping of heart beat and the blood pumping are two different functions, it is not the block in venyrical but here the block means "conduction" electrical wich sends impulsus to cardiac systmems (Ventricals) for contractility, and disturbacecs in this system causes the skip heat beat, and that is rarely shows any sing and symptoms, this can be seen in healthy person also, which is not to be worried, I hope you understand this, and will clear the doubt, have nice day.
