Is there any significance to having a hard pounding feeling heart beat on the left side when lying down on the left side ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: Don't worry, this is normal. The heart lies to the left, so pulsation a from the hearts contractions are better felt when lying on that side.
