Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should first rule out arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart) in you case because arrhythmia can occur in young individuals.
So get done ecg, 2d echo and Holter monitoring (24 hours continuous recording of ecg).
You may need anti arrhythmia drug on the basis of these reports.
If these reports are normal then no need to worry for arrhythmia or other heart diseases.
Sometimes stress and anxiety can cause similar kind of strange heart beats.
So avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Don't worry, you will be alright but first rule out arrhythmia.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks
