A member asked:

I have noticed about a month ago that my superior labial artery now has a very easy to feel pulse. what could this mean/should i get this checked on?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably normal.: I think this is probably just a heightened awareness of a normal variation. There are no diseases that would produce this sign.
