A member asked:

What does it mean when you feel a pulse in your stomache?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: The aorta is the largest artery in your body. It travels against your spine just to the left of the midline. If you are thin and push hard enough you can feel it just like the pulse in your wrist.
