Hello doctor! I am 19 years old this year, the normal heart beat ranges from 100-110 times / minute. Recently, even though I haven't exercised vigorously, my heart rate sometimes rises to 120-125 times / minute, dizziness and shortness of breath. Doctor let me ask, if the heart beats 120-125 times / minute, dizziness and shortness of breath, is it dangerous? I would like to thank the doctor.
