Heart beating fast for no reason: Causes and treatments

February 17, 2021

From the Medical News Today website

According to the American Heart Association (AHA), the average adult has a resting heartbeat of about 60⁠–⁠100 beats per minute. A heart rate higher than 100 beats per minute is known as tachycardia.

Most causes of a rapid heartbeat are not dangerous. However, a faster than usual heartbeat can be a symptom of an underlying health problem.

This article looks at what can cause a person’s heart to beat faster, treatments, and when to see a doctor.
