Brief Answer:
Can be an infection

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

I would advise you to take temperature, if you have high temperature most likely you have an infection. In this case you will need to see your doctor.

The racing of your heart is caused from your general condition, it is not dangerous and will disappear with recovery.

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
