Veins do not have pulses as the pressure in veins is much less than in arteries. You have arteries throughout your body as that is how your body gets new oxygen. Veins take the blood back to the heart and lungs to get more oxygen to take to the arteries. Since the veins are farther from the side of the heart that has the newly oxygenated blood the pressure in them is less. How strong the pulse is depends on how large of an artery you feel it in.<br><b>References : </b><br>RN Your pulse is found wherever you have arteries.

It's most obvious where there is a sizable artery that you can press against a bone or firm structures. So you can feel your pulse lots of places if you try. It's just the blood of each heartbeat going through the artery. If you couldn't feel it, then you'd be in trouble :-) The head has a lot of bone near the surface, so there are a number of places you'll feel it.<br><b>References : </b><br>Paramedic.
