I've Been Experiencing Weird Heart Sensations. Is It Potentially Dangerous?

Published: October 13, 2020
Dear TeenHealthFX,
Recently I’ve been experiencing a weird heart sensation almost like my heart is jumping, I’ve experienced this before but it never persisted for 5 days straight,. It’s gotten to the point where it’s waking me up at night, and it’s making it uncomfortable to sleep. I’m worried it might be something serious,I just turned 15 . Any idea on what this could be ? Or if it’s potentially dangerous?

Unfortunately, TeenHealthFX cannot diagnose over the internet. We strongly suggest you talk to a parent or trusted adult and let them know what you are experiencing.  Then, you need to make an appointment with your healthcare provider. Only they can diagnose and treat, if necessary. If you need help finding a doctor and live in northern New Jersey, you can call the  Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health  at 973-971-5199  for an appointment with an adolescent medicine specialist.
