How can you check you heart rate at home?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Feel wrist: Feel your wrist for the pulse and get a watch with a second hand or stop watch and count pulse for 15 seconds and multiple by 4.More accurate would be to count a full minute.Lots of smart watches can do it as well as pulse ox about 20 dollars on amazon and many blood pressures cuffs have this feature also.
