A member asked:
My daughter has been feeling a pulse at the bottom of her right rib cage, mostly happens when she lies down what could it be?

Aorta: The aorta is the largest artery in the body. Many healthy slender people feel or even see the pulsation in the abdomen. High blood pressure and aneurysm would be worrisome possibilities but unlikely in a 14 year old. If you still have concerns, have a physician examine and advise her.
