📖What is Irregular Heartbeat?

Irregular heartbeat, or arrhythmia, is when the heart beats too fast, too slow, or with an uneven rhythm, which may feel like skipping, fluttering, or a sudden thud in the chest. Some arrhythmias are harmless and go unnoticed, while others can affect the heart's ability to pump blood effectively. Episodes can be brief or persistent, and risk increases with age or existing heart disease.
