No.. the index finger does not have a pulse... for this reason, when feeling for a person's pulse, you use your middle finger and your index finger (you never use your thumb as it has a pulse)
You can use your fingers to check the any pulse in your body, just apply the fingers in the correct positions of the pulse locations and there you have it.
You can check your pulse by putting two fingers on your wrist, or putting two fingers on the side of your neck. Either place works for checking your pulse. but i would try the neck first.
They check your pulse
When it came to fashion, she always had her finger on the pulse.
We take our pulse with our fingers instead of our thumbs because our thumbs have their own pulse so you could get confused i guess :) ... im only in grade seven and i know that :) im not bragging just telling you, you should know
Pulse.
Palpation
of the three fingers the forefinger nd the ring figer are used to occclude the artery nd the middle finger is helpful in measuring the pulse rate
No, two fingers are the best method for checking pulse on your neck (external carotid artery). A stethescope is not effective at checking a pulse, it is used to hear the heart, or hear abnormal arterial sounds such as bruis.
Play two fingers on the pulse in the wrist (just below the thumb). Count each pulse for 30 seconds, then times by two. This will give the pulse rate for one minute. Obviously, you take the pulse once you have rested and cooled down for a few minutes first.
Pulse, use your fingers, especially on others. In your thumb you will feel your own pulse .
Either on your neck(fell with two fingers) or on your wrist.
