A member asked:
I know it can be, but is it always cause for concern to see your pulse in abdomen just below sternum?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Aorta: This is where your aorta lives. At 36, the incidence of aortic aneurysm approaches zero so I must conclude that you're seeing a normal pulsation. This is very common in thin people. Does that describe you?
