Question
Does anyone know about a pulse rate being different in both arms? I thought it was suppose to be the same?
Answer
stenosis of the radial artery, earlier surgery on one of your arms,wrong pulse taking e.g. with the thumb which has its own pulse, or possibly you were expecting something like that and got too excited taking the pulse, or it may be something much more serious but you need not worry if the difference was not more than five and i would advise you to calmly retake the pulse again and the right waywith the tip of your fingers.brIf the result is the same and it is gretaer than a difference of five, go see your doc!
