Palpitation: Is a symptom reported by patients, a sensation of rapid heartbeat in the chest. Causes of rapid heartbeat could be anything from harmless emotional conditions to fatal arrhythmias. So it is best if you have your doctor check it out. At your age, coronary artery disease is not very likely, but congenital structural heart disease is always possible.
