What Could Cause On And Off Loud Beating Of Heart With Pain In Left Arm In A Teenager?
Hi! I was doing my homework and I realized I can hear my heart beating in my ears. At first I didn t really care until it didn t stop for hours and it started bugging me a lot. It has happened before but it does go away in a few minutes. But today it started beating in my ears around 4 pm and it still is (9pm). My left arm is also hurting. I m really nervous and I would like to know why this is happening. I m a 14 year old female. Thank you !
hi palpitation in teenagers commonly due anxiety but if this is worrisome and affecting your daily activities than u have to go for an ecg during palpitation episode if this palpitation is associated with shortness of breath or dizzzines than u have to do echocardiography or holter monitoring if u have history of congenital heart disease in your family than u have to go for complete examination mean while avoid coffee and energy drink most of the time they are the cause hope answer your question thanks
