Brief Answer:
No if you dont have symptoms

Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Puls higher than 100 isn't problematic unless you have symptoms such as pain in the chest, heart palpitations,dizziness it vertigo. So at this point,try to rest,avoid alcohol and coffee and drink more fluids. If you have any of these symptoms,you should see doctor. Wish you good health. Regards
