What Could Cause A Visible Pulsation On Collarbone On Right Side Of The Neck?

Today I noticed a visible pulsating near my collarbone on the right side of my neck. My BP is 134 over 76 and my heart rate is 51. I have been on Toporal for several year. After looking it up on the internet I am nervous. Can you offer what it might be. I have no other symptoms.

Hi .You have probably noticed the beating of one artery called Carotids which lie at the base of neck just above the Medial part of collarbone. In thin built individuals particularly it can be frequently . This is quite normal and do not worry about it.
