do i need to see a heart doc. if my pulse rate is like 120..im 13.is that normal for my age?

Question:

Answers:
Normal rate for your age would be from 60-100. What were you doing when you checked your pulse? Is that after physical exertion or is your resting pulse? Are you on any medications? There are many factors that could affect your pulse rate but always check with your doctor if you're concerned, whether you fall in the normal range or not.

Other Answers:
120 is a bit fast, but your heart may beat at a faster rate than most. The very best thing you can do is consult a doctor. There are several things to ask and to check. A basic wellness/physical examination is a great place to start.
