Hi,

Heart rate can go up transiently because of adrenaline rush like in excitement and fear. Physical exertion can also cause elevated heart rate.
Nothing much to worry and it will return to normal without treatment.As your cardio work up is clean, no need to worry and no treatment is required.

Hope I have answered your query.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Palpitations can be caused by various factors. If it is recurring, then you will need Holter study, which will be done by your Cardiologist.
