A member asked:
Why am i feeling my heartbeat in my upper back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can feel your heartbeat in various places on your body since there are blood vessels everywhere. Sometimes, especially in very thin people, the blood vessels are closer to muscles, nerves, etc. with less fat to insulate them so heart beat sensations are felt. Good luck to you!
