What is question?: Constipation by definition means either infrequent (< twice a week) and/or excessively hard stool. Heart racing is not typically caused from being constipated nor severe abdominal pain. More serious abdominal and intestinal conditions could cause severe symptoms including a bowel obstruction. If symptoms are severe then seeking medical care is advisable.

Many things: Many things can cause they symptoms you are feeling. Anxiety can sometimes present in a similar way. The best way to treat constipation is to increase water and fiber in your diet.
