What happens when the heart rate increases during a hot bath?
you might have a heart palpatation
What is abnormal fluttering of the heart beat?
A heart flutter could meen palpitation, which is what a random fluttering of the heart is, or could mean an illness such as heart diesise. It all depends on how old you are, if you are young it could just mean palpatation which shouldn't really give you any harm, but if your an older person it well could mean an illness, however it could just mean palpatation even if you are an older person. But what ever it is I would have it checked at the doctors incase of anything. They would normally take your blood pressure ect. I have little flutters now and then and I'm young but I wouldn't worry about anything.
