Q. What is the reason for increase in resting heart rate?
Hi doctor,
I am 25 years old. My resting heart rate is above 100 beats per minute. What is the reason?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have worked through your query and understand your health issues. I assure you do not worry as you have consulted the appropriate expert physician who will take care of all of your medical concerns. The reasons for tachycardia are as follows. Thyroid disease and poor blood supply to the heart muscles can cause it. Poor blood supply to heart muscles can occur due to coronary artery disease (atherosclerosis), heart valve disease, heart failure, heart muscle disease, tumors, or infections. High blood pressure, lung diseases, electrolyte imbalance, alcohol or drug abuse, emotional stress and drinking large amounts of alcoholic or caffeinated beverages, sodas, coffee, tea, and energy drinks can also cause it. If you have any other symptoms like shortness of breath, dizziness, weakness, fainting, etc., then consult a cardiologist for proper physical evaluation and treatment if needed. He may also prescribe some medicine to control heartbeat and blood pressure. Also, there are ways to treat tachycardia with home remedies.
