A member asked:
I have a pulsing feeling in my back when i an sitting up or lying down. i cant feel anything when i am standing. is this anything to worry about. it has been happening for 3 weeks.

Pulsating: One of the causes of a pulsating feeling in the back is an aneurysm of the abdominal aorta-the largest artery in the body. For peace of mind, I recommend an examination by a physician to check for an aneurysm which is easily detected by an ultrasound of the abdomen.
