Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi My daughter is 15 and from time to time she complains of some irregular heartbeat (faster), joined with the sensation of stabbing pain in the heart area, pain that goes down across her arm and finger. Sometimes, she gets cold flashes as well as sweetening palms and shortness of breath. The attacks go by themselves after 20 minutes.... I'm not sure if I have to worry and get it checked, or if these are only panic attacks which are most common in teens. I really hope that you can help.Thank you
