A member asked:
Strong pulse in knee, what's going on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
what part?: You have an artery that runs behind the knee (the popliteal artery) and if you extend your leg and palpate carefully, you can feel it, but if it's easy to feel, you should get an ultrasound test done to rule out an aneurysm.
