What Does a Blood Clot Feel Like?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
6. Rapid Heart Beat
If the heart is not able to function as efficiently as it usually would then it may begin to pump more quickly in order to try and compensate. This is a sign of a number of conditions, some of which are potentially very serious. This includes a blood clot in the chest area.
Because of the potential seriousness of the underlying causes, patients with a rapid heart beat are recommended to see a medical professional as soon as possible. It may turn out to be something relatively minor, but it would still have been a good idea to get it checked.
