My Apple Watch is randomly showing high resting heart rate. 120!!! I’m feeling absolutely fine. I’m pretty sure this is incorrect. Should have felt some sort of discomfort if the heart rate was so high.
Apple Watch Series 7, watchOS 9
Learn how to feel (palpate) your own pulse, the carotid is the most prominent, then use stopwatch to check.
Check the strap is snug and the watch away from tattoos.
If it were me, I'd be inclined to share these results with a qualified medical professional as opposed to asking strangers on a public user to user only forum. The thing about heart rate is one doesn't always have symptoms which might let you know there could be an issue. Better safe than sorry.
Absolutely!
I said that to the last poster but forgot to say that in this case!
I got so used to silly spikes on my Polar running Watch I could often be seen running with my fingers on my carotid artery 😂
I'm trying to imagine it in my mind, but...........😳
