Question 2

Why can i feel a pulse in my fingers?

Accepted Answer

You have arteries running in every finger and toe and if you feel for them carefully enough, you can feel their pulse. All arteries pulsate throughout their length but we generally only look for them in areas where they're easy to feel. The most common one is the radial artery on the inside of your wrist below the thumb, but there are many others.

Question 3

I feel my pulse in my fingers and every time i press them ir touch something, i have been feeling like this since i got my period any ideas????

Accepted Answer

You do, in fact, have arteries in your fingers which produce a pulse ("digital arteries"). When you compress your fingers by touching something with just the right pressure, you partially compress the artery and can feel the pulsation, just like when a BP cuff is deflated and you feel the throb in your arm. This isn't abnormal, but you have one heck of a good sense of touch! Do you play the piano?

When i'm standing up for a while, i can feel my blood rush to my fingers and i can feel a pulse. is this normal?

It would be helpful to measure your blood pressure and pulse on sitting and on standing, and if the readings are within normal range, that would indicate that your symptoms or observations are not suggestive of any abnormalities in the cardiovascular system. Your physician could check this easily for you.

Would you have symptoms if your blood oxygen level truly jumped around from 97 to 84 in a minute and then back up? what causes that? its happened several times with a finger pulse oximeter. is that probably an error? 30 year old. 3 weeks postpartum.

Accepted Answer

A finger pulse oximeter is a little machine that has a specific purpose. Normal, healthy people neither have nor use the machine unless there is a specific reason. For example, a pilot might use one to watch for the downward trend as he flies higher and higher in his little 2-seater. Numbers that jump around don't have a meaning unless the person has been asked by her doctor to watch for that.
