Patient's question:
I recently feel that my heart is beating very fast. At first, I didn't pay much attention, but later I felt something was wrong, so I quickly went to ask a doctor. The doctor said that this condition is called arrhythmia and that it's not a big problem. But I think it's better to be cautious. What should I pay attention to with arrhythmia?Doctor's answer:
Patients with irregular heartbeat should avoid heavy physical labor and intense exercise in daily life, always maintain a calm mindset, and prevent emotional excitement or excessive fluctuations. Daily activities should be based on household exercises and aerobic exercises, such as running, walking, or ice skating. Additionally, for severe irregular heartbeat patients, effective medication should be administered for treatment. Common medications include calcium channel blockers, β-adrenergic blockers, etc. If necessary, a pacemaker may be implanted.
