I have a pulsating sensation in my right calf that happen when i sit and lie down. not constant but is often enough to be noticed. what could this be?

Fatigue: Pulsations of the body may be a result of muscle spasms from fatigue and nerve irritation or blood flow in that particular area. Eat healthy, exercise regularly and stretch your legs. It should resolve on its own. If it continues to bother you, see a doctor for closer examination.
