What Causes High Heart Rate And Muscle Pain?

I am age 53 male and exercise daily. My normal heart rate is in the mid 50's. in the last few days, my resting heart beat has jumped to near 70-75 per minute. I have also been experiencing some muscle pains in arms , shoulders , and legs. No chest pains. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

It seems like some general disease, maybe you have caught cold or something similar.
I would advise you to take temperature and have blood tests done, to check if there is any change, like high WBCs.

Wishing you good health
