You are quietly brushing your teeth and your heart begins to beat faster and in a disorderly manner. Don’t panic! Heart palpitations are not necessarily a sign of a heart problem but may be due to surprising causes.

Sometimes you can feel a small bang in the chest, with stronger, faster or even irregular heartbeats. Most of the time it doesn’t matter. In front of these palpitations, the first thing to do is to relax. Sit down and breathe deeply for several minutes, then drink a glass of water.
