How to do when you have a palpitation?

Palpitation is the manifestation of arrhythmia.

For example, some people may feel that the heartbeat missed a beat, while others may suddenly feel a series of rapid and irregular heartbeat.

The most intuitive method is to self-monitor the number of pulses in one minute:

feel whether the pulse is even, whether there is a lack or more;

The normal pulse frequency should be between 60 and 100 times/minute.

If you feel palpitations occasionally due to tension, strenuous exercise, etc., it is generally not a big problem. It can also be tested free of charge with the help of app software—AFibCheck. It can also search “AFibCheck” from various app stores and download app.

 However, if palpitations occur frequently, and abnormal conditions occur after many times of pulse self-testing, it may be the manifestation of the disease. You must not underestimate it. You need to go to the nearest medical institution for further diagnosis such as ECG.
