Heart rhythm problems are also referred as arrhythmia, where the heart doesn't work in a regular manner, either the heartbeat can be too fast or too slow.

This situation happens when the electrical signal that mainly controls the heartbeat gets affected.

The irregularity in the heartbeat can happen due to various factors, such as:

1. Problems occurred in the heart's electrical system
2. The condition may be triggered by the consumption of alcohol
3. Usage of certain medication
4. Any other underlying health conditions

Symptoms of arrhythmia:

You may observe several symptoms when you are facing a heartbeat problem. Some of the most common symptoms are:

1. Heart palpitations: You can sense your heart is racing, fluttering and too fast
2. Breathing problem: You can observe shortness of breath even after a small walk or even while resting
3. Pain & Discomfort: You may observe mild to severe chest pain or abnormal discomfort

Just not that, if arrhythmia is your health problem, you may also see dizziness, fainting, lightheadedness, and fatigue at times.

If you have observed any of such conditions, it is best to consult the Electrophysiologist in Hyderabad for proper care and treatment.

Types of Arrhythmias:

Arrhythmia is classified into various types based on the symptoms and behavior of the condition that you observe in an individual, they are:

Tachycardia: It is a fast heartbeat condition.

Bradycardia: It is a slow heartbeat condition.

Atrial fibrillation (AFib): A heart rhythm disorder where the upper chambers of the heart beat irregularly or out of sync.

Ventricular fibrillation: It is a threatening condition where the heart's lower chambers move quickly and randomly, preventing the heart from pumping blood.

Treatment of Arrhythmias:

In general, the irregular heartbeat condition is treated through medications and if the condition requires a procedure, then the catheter ablation is used to correct the electrical signals. In some cases of arrhythmia, the pacemaker and ICDs are implanted to set the heart rhythm. Apart from all these medications and procedures, the specialist would suggest lifestyle changes and share the diet plan and exercise to treat the condition.
