Hi , some people who are lean tend to have peripheral arterial pulsations that can be felt over the peripheral parts of the body and it tends to be harmeless unless there is any aneurysm or any other anomalous vascular connections which should be treated accordingly.Also consult a vascular surgeon for a better opinion who can analyse better by examining and treating accordingly.
