Teen Suffering From Chronic Headaches, Noticed Strong Pulse In Left Arm. Should I Be Concerned?

My son is 15. He has suffered from chronic headaches for the past two years. Yesterday he noticed a strong pulse in his lower left arm. It comes and goes throughout the day. It has continued today. You can actually feel and see the pulse about two inches above his wrist. Should we be concerned?
