Hello, Your chest and ear infections could be interlinked (allergic/infection -- viral, bacterial, or fungal). Increased heartbeats can be following weakness of recurrent infections/nervousness due to recurrent infections or some heart problem. It s not normal. You need a complete health check-up ( chest, heart, and ear), get some investigations (CBC, sputum/throat/ear swab for culture and sensitivity test, x-ray chest, ECG, and full cardiac profile, allergy screening test) as per need to pin point the cause and get specific treatment to manage all of them. Consult a physician to start with and experts (chest physician, ENT surgeon or cardiologist). Cleanliness, healthy food, avoiding allergens, good sleep, routine exercises, and exposure to extreme weathers with a positive thinking. In addition, specific treatment would help you to get rid of the problems. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale
