What is the normal heart rate for a 15 year old.?

Question

i went to the doctor and my heart rate and 48 so they sent me to the hospital for a EKG and i have a small small leak in my left aortic valve but he said its nothing to worry about everyone has a small one usually and then he said that the heart monitor they hooked me up to for 24 hours showed that at 5:30 pm my heart rate dropped to 38 and and 2:30 am it went to 138 (who knows a very good dream maybe lol) so what should my heart rate be for my age im 15 about 5'10 and weight 124 pounds and run two miles every day.

Answer 3

It seems your having heart aromas this is very dangerous at your age, are you eating a lot of trans fats or an imbalanced diet because if you are you need to stop working out not only that you need to take it easy till your heart heals. To be honest with you got lucky some people have a naturally low heart rate, mine is 58 but a normal is between 70-80

Answer 4

I'm 16, 5'10" and 124 lbs, so we're kind of close in the height/weight aspect. My heart rate usually hovers around 120-140; the only time I've checked it was after a meal in gym class.

I've also had an EKG before, and I was told that everything was normal.
