My mother is 67.she has noticed her neck is pulsating, the lower middle section between her collar bones.she also has stated that it burns or stings.

Artery: There are several arteries in the area of the suprasternal notch (where you describe.) Sometimes as people age they become tortuous or dilated and cause pulsation that can be felt or seen. Your mother should visit her Primary Care for evaluation. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
