Can you measure bp on legs if yes then why?

Answer 1

Some medical conditions prevent a health professional to obtain a Blood Pressure from the arm, or the arm is simply too big. Obtaining a Blood Pressure from ones leg is an accurate reading just as on the arm, you can also get a reading from the forearm.

Answer 2

Blood pressure should be measured on the arms rather than the legs because the standard method for blood pressure measurement follows the brachial artery. Measuring blood pressure on the legs may not provide an accurate reading and can be misleading in diagnosing certain medical conditions.
