Patient's Query
Hi, Welcome to icliniq.com. These palpitations occur due to differences in heart rhythms. Most commonly, it occurs due to premature beats of extrasystoles followed by slow rhythms and then normal rhythm occurs again. It is not a serious issue mostly. But it is serious in some conditions. If you have dizziness, syncope, loss of consciousness at the time of palpitations, then these conditions require investigations. I suggest you do ECG (electrocardiogram) while having palpitations.
