Tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats faster than normal—over 100 beats per minute (BPM) at rest. 🫀 While a fast heartbeat during exercise or stress is normal, tachycardia at rest may signal an underlying heart issue. 🔍 Types of Tachycardia: -Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT): Begins in the upper chambers -Ventricular Tachycardia: Begins in the lower chambers—can be life-threatening -Sinus Tachycardia: Normal response to fever, anxiety, or dehydration 📉 Symptoms may include: -Palpitations -Dizziness -Shortness of breath -Chest pain -Fainting ⚠️ If left untreated, it can lead to serious complications like heart failure, stroke, or cardiac arrest. 🩺 Consult a cardiologist if you experience a racing heart without an obvious reason.
