Palpitation
Palpitation, a common
problem, is a state in which the heart beats forcibly and
maybe, irregularly. It enables the person to become aware of
the action of his heart. It is a distressing condition but
is not always serious.
Symptoms:
The
main symptom of palpitation of the heart is a kind of
‘thumping’ feeling in the chest .The patient feels a
real discomfort in the front of the chest .The pulse rate
may become faster than normal.
Causes:
Palpitation of the heart may occur due to a variety of
factors, most of which may not be related to the heart
itself. Anything, which increases the workload of the heart,
may bring on this condition. Some persons may experience
palpitations when lying on the left side, because the heart
is nearer the chest wall in that position. Many nervous
persons suffer from this condition. Although palpitations do
occur among other symptoms in serious heart disease, the
vast majority of cases is due to anxiety and has no direct
connection with heart disease whatsoever. Other causes
contribution to this condition is an overfull stomach,
flatulence, and constipation. Excessive smoking may also
give rise to this disorder.
