Brief Answer:
Yes - you should
Detailed Answer:
Hi friend
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The Blood pressure is normal
The pulse rate is a little higher – the usual range is 60 to 100 / this is not a dire emergency by itself, but in combination with tiredness, it needs to be evaluated.
Anaemia / Anxiety / Alcohol / Tobacco (smoking) / Caffeine (too much tea, coffee, cola) / Fever / Infection / Pain / Stress / Thyroid / electrolytes - calcium, magnesium / Medicines like Phenylephrine used for ‘cold’; Salbutamol used for asthma and so on - may be responsible.... / Less commonly, disease of the heart or its conduction system may be responsible!
Appropriate treatment demands accurate diagnosis
And diagnosis demands examination; probably investigation too;
It is wiser to look and see rather than wait and guess
GET HIM EXAMINED / Happy, if nothing is found / if anything is found, it can be addressed appropriately
The treating doctor alone could conclude better, based on the total clinical picture
Good luck
God bless you
Yes - you should

Hi,
