A member asked:
What causes low pulse (49 to 55 ) and what is the tx.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Could be heart block, and there are different degrees. You would need an ekg to appropriately diagnosis. Also if you we're well conditioned or on av nodal blocking agents ( beta blockers or calcium channel blockers) those would also cause a low heart rate.
