Living With Palpitations
Most palpitations are harmless and often go away on their own. In these cases, no treatment is needed. Your doctor may advise you to avoid triggers for palpitations. (See "How Are Palpitations Treated?")
Your doctor may have already told you that your palpitations are harmless. However, if they become very noticeable or bothersome, you should see your doctor again. You also should see your doctor if your palpitations get worse or begin to happen more often.
Your doctor will tell you about other signs and symptoms to be aware of and when to seek emergency care.
Your palpitations may be due to a medical condition or heart problem. If so, your doctor will give you advice and treatment for your condition. |
