Hi. I am 19 years old and can feel my pulse in my abdomen around my navel. It s worse when I lay on my back, but it isn t always there. The pulsating comes and goes. Sometimes I can lie on my back without feeling it at all. I was just curious what this could be.
Hello. Thanks for putting your query in hcm. Pulsating sensation near navel is due to underlying major artery known as abdominal aorta . In thin person it is palpable easily. So there is nothing to worry as it is normal. I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Wish you a good health
