Can u hear a heart murmur without a thesteascope?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes: Heart murmurs are a result of turbulent blood flow through the heart. If the volume and velocity of the blood are high enough, and the chest wall is thin enough, sometimes (but rarely), a murmur can be heard without a stethoscope.
