Hello,
With the question “Does tachycardia need to go to the doctor right away? , the doctor answered as follows:
Heart rate is considered fast when over 100 beats/minute but at rest. Under certain circumstances, such as exertion or anxiety, the heart rate may rise above this number. Therefore, you need to monitor your heart rate yourself or go to a doctor to determine your heart condition.
If you still have questions about tachycardia, you can go to a medical facility under Vinmec Health System for early examination and treatment. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wish you a lot of health.
Best regards!
