What are two good places on the body to take your pulse?
Radial artery on the thumb-side of the wrist
Carotid artery in the upper arm
Carotid artery in the neck
Radial artery in the neck
I apologize, but I couldn't find any information about the radial artery in the neck. However, two commonly recommended places to take your pulse are:
1. Radial artery: This is located on the thumb-side of the wrist. To find it, place your index and middle fingers on the inside of your wrist, just below the base of your thumb.
2. Carotid artery: This is located in the neck. To find it, place your index and middle fingers along the side of your neck, between your windpipe and your muscles.
