It is freaking me out!""- took this from another yahoo person but im young so it cant be a baby so what is it? please help
Answers:
It is your abdominal pulse that over the abdominal aorta.
In the vast majority of cases it is completely normal. Rarely there is a bulging weakness on the aortic wall but as I said this is rare especially rare on a young person. I think you are fine.
As far a massing and getting swishy sounds - hey massage an fluid filled area and guess what - fluids move!
You sound like a hypochondriac - i hope not.
