Can increased heart rate cause heart attack?
Sometimes my heart rate feels very fast, especially if I get stressed or exert myself. My friend said it's something to worry about. Can an increased heart rate actually cause a heart attack?

Oh god, even I get super anxious when my heart starts racing for no reason. Usually, a high heart rate from anxiety isn't a heart attack, but please rest and drink water. If it doesn't settle down, do get it checked.
A high heart rate or tachycardia is a symptom, not a direct cause of a heart attack, though prolonged strain isn't safe. However, if you are experiencing chest pain, pressure, or shortness of breath alongside it, please seek emergency medical care immediately.
Beta, sit down and take deep breaths, drink some cold water. Sometimes gastric trouble or stress makes the heart beat fast, but if there is any heavy chest pain or sweating, don't wait for home remedies, go straight to the hospital.
Haan, ghabrahat mein heart rate badh jana normal hai, par har baar heart attack nahi hota na. Agar chest mein dard ho raha hai ya saans lene mein dikkat hai, toh bilkul risk mat lo, doc ke paas jao.
