If the heart beat increases in this condition, then be careful! This could be POTS

Heart Rate And Pots: The better the blood circulation in the body, the better its organs work. This is such a process going on inside the body, which goes on continuously. However, due to some disorders, blood circulation in the body can be affected. POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome) is also one such disorder. On standing in this, most of the blood remains on the lower part of the body and the circulation on the upper part gets obstructed. In response to this, the heart beat increases and many types of problems start happening. The doctor believes that everyone should know about POTS, so that it can be avoided.
