Hello,
It depends upon whether this a new or an old problem. If he has always been like this then it is probably not an issue. However, if it is a new problem it could indicate a problem with his heart, thyroid or other organ systems. If it is a new problem, then he should consult his doctor and get a complete physical and possibly a stress test on his heart.
Regards,
Dr. Robinson
