A member asked:

Hi my resting heartbeat sometimes drops down to 50/53...is this normal? it's generally between 60 and 80 it's just sometimes in the day it drops that low?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not abnormal: Check with parents and relatives, as some genetic cohorts run slow pulses. Assuming you do not have heart block, this is likely very normal for you.
