Instead of helping your health, there are concerns that a specific fitness tracker could be posing a risk.

The Bluetooth devices from Provata health are being recalled due to a risk of burns.

They were given away during promotions over the past year.

There have been 13 reports of the tracker overheating while charging or being used.

A handful of people have burns on their wrists.

Provata is offering to replace them for free.
