Doctor's answer (1)
Dr. Wang Huiying
People with sinus bradycardia are usually not anemic. Sinus bradycardia is a very common condition. Normally, the resting heart rate ranges between 60 and 90 beats per minute; when it falls below 60 beats per minute, it is considered sinus bradycardia, meaning the heartbeat becomes quite slow. Many healthy individuals, such as athletes or those who exercise regularly, often have sinus bradycardia.
