Skin Turgor Test

Skin Turgor Test

This is a test that you can do it on yourself to check for dehydration.

Skin turgor refers to the elasticity of your skin.

When you pinch the skin on your arm, it should spring back into place within a second or two. Having poor skin turgor means it takes longer for your skin to return to its usual position and hence indicates dehydration.
