[|Human|] My 15 yr old son woke up with a warm feeling in across his chest and back of neck and his pulse was high - around 150. Warm feeling spread to his thighs. BP was high 165/70 but came down to 140/70 after taking it a few times and his pulse came down to 88.
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. He was having tachycardia (high pulse rate) and hypertension at the time of symptoms. So we should definitely rule out heart diseases first. At the age of 15 years, valvular heart diseases and arrhythmias are common. So better to get done ECG, 2d echo and Holder monitoring (24 hour continuous monitoring of ECG). If all these are normal then no need to worry about heart diseases. Sometimes, stress and anxiety can also cause tachycardia and high blood pressure. So ask him to avoid stress and tension. Consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Don't worry, he will be alright, but first rule out heart diseases. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your son. Thanks.
