A member asked:
Why is there a faint heartbeat around your belly button area?

Aorta: Your aorta, the largest artery and the direct connection from your heart, lives there.

aorta: Just underneath the umbilicus, the largest artery in the body, the aorta, branches into the common iliac arteries which lead to each leg. That's why you can feel a pulse there, especially if you're on the thin side. Good question. Good luck.
