I can always feel my pulse right at the collarbone dip right under the neck. I can never find it anywhere else lol. Why isn't that area used?

Can anybody tell me about left axis deviation on ECG?

[jacobherrigsimonsen]

Not trachea but larynx (Adam's apple to be specific).

[pranksytchannel]

It's not the trachea, it's the thyroid cartilage which is the part of the larynx.
