A member asked:
Cause of intermittent pulsating sensation on top of foot? no trauma to the feet, no pain. may back/spine contribute? sensation felt only when sitting.

Under Pressure.: Intermittent pulsating on top of foot sounds as though you are describing blood, under pressure, flowing through an artery. The specified location could possibly include the dorsalis pedis artery. The pulsing may or may not be affected by the act of sitting as opposed to standing. To remove all doubt, an evaluation by a number of specialist could help resolve your concerns.
