Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Kindly get him to a Doctor to rule out high Blood pressure and also look for what is causing it. Palpitations at rest is no issue to be taken for granted. He needs to stay off smoking and alcohol as it could be dangerous for him. Anxiety can also explain the symptoms but if it is recent with headaches it could point to existing pathology. How is his vision, does he sweat a lot, any tingling and numbness. If needed he needs to stay away from performing till he can get to a Doctor.

Hi,
the problem your friend has indicates stress indicating raised stress harmone (i.e. adrenalin) which has effect on blood circulation.
Does he have palpitation also ? please let him have a Physician's consultation.the thing may not be serious but needs check up &treament if needed.
