What Are The Causes Of Having Faster Heart Beat And Lightheadedness While Playing Soccer?

Hi, sometimes when I'm playing soccer my heart starts to beat really fast. Its really scary and uncomfortable. Kinda feels like a heart attack I think but it's not. And I get light headed too. It only last a few minutes. What is it and is there anything I could do?

Hi, my friend there r some conditions which causes this sign n symptom. But i have some suggestion for u before u consult a physician.
Before u play ..do some warm up exercise n deep breathing exercise because without this if start running suddenly there is sudden change in (increased demand) oxygen n glucose level in blood which body takes time to compensate.
Also when u play put some glucose water n a pinch salt in 200 ml of water n take it whenever u feel exhuasted n light headness and between ur play.
As decreased supply of glucose n low blood pressure causes this .
Do this n then again talk to me . If u does not improve then u hv to consult a physician for monitoring of blood pressure , blood sugar level n Thread mil test to rule out any cardiac cause ........but m sure u will get fine without these . Good luck.
U can contact me again
