A member asked:

Pounding pulse in my stomach when lying on back sometimes it is strong sometimes it is not as strong. is it something bad like aaa? im 19 160lb 6'0

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Only way: To know for sure is by getting an ultrasound examination. Unless you have a genetic disorder, AAA is unlikely at your age. But you should have your blood pressure checked, both when pulse is pounding and when it is not.
