A member asked:

My heart began beating really fast today and my chest hurts. also i have a history with asthma. what might the problem be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chest hurting : In your case is more likely from your asthma -that is poorly controlled. Regardless, you still need to be evaluated and get on treatment asap. Smoking is not healthy especially with your asthma either
