Question: What are the causes of irregular heart beats
Answer: Irregular heartbeat is known as arrhythmia and may be caused by many different factors such as

underlying heart diseases electrolyte imbalances changes in the heart muscle
Irregular heart rhythms can also occur in normal healthy hearts

exercise stress smoking use of marijuana alcohol or some medications can also result in irregular heartbeats 

However it is important to know whether you sense these irregularities often and regularly or just once in a while Do they come after particular instances or just casually and all of a sudden 

If you have or feel the following symptoms continuously please contact your doctor for a check up palpitations a feeling of skipped heart beats pounding in the chest dizziness or feeling lightheaded fainting shortness of breath chest discomfort or generalised weakness or feeling very tired 

Treatment depends on the type and seriousness of your arrhythmia Some people with arrhythmias require no treatment For others treatments can include medication making lifestyle changes and undergoing surgical procedures
