Because the arteries carry blood away from the heart.
It's important for arteries to be buried deep within the body for their protection. A rupture or breach of an arterial wall can result in rapid and dangerous blood loss because the contained blood is under high pressure.
yes
because if it is close to your skin it will be weasily wounded
arteries and veins are found throughout the body. arteries carry blood away from the heart and veins carry it to the heart
If done properly, there should be no aches after a deep tissue massage.
becasuse wounded to your skin
Due to ventricular systole, the blood flows through arteries under pressure in a jerky motion. So it is better for the arteries to be placed deeply as lot of blood loss can occur when damaged if they are placed close to the skin.
Cutaneous (originating in the skin of subcutaneous tissue, such as a shaving nick or paper cut), deep somatic pain (arising from bone, ligaments and tendons, nerves, or veins and arteries).
The Related Links section has a link to a website that has a diagram of the arm.The bluish blood vessels visible when you look at your wrist are veins. The arteries are deeper and not located particularly near the veins. Gray's Anatomy has a transverse section of the wrist; if you look at it you'll see you'd have to cut fairly deeply to hit one of the arteries, and the other is buried behind a ligament.
If arteries were as exposed as veins are, what do u think would happen if you got a cut? Our bodies try protect the major organs and vital parts from harm. Veins on the other hand aren't AS important as arteries therefore the body can take the risk of veins being more exposed. Examples: The sternum and rib cage protect our lungs and heart and our skull protects our brain.
