What Causes Fluttering Sensation Below The Left Rib Cage And Abdomen?

I recently started to feel a fluttering sensation right beneath my left rib cage and abdomen The feeling is not painful, but more annoying, as it seems to happen every minute. Are there any reasons to be concerned? Does anxiety make this symptom worse?

Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

Pulsations below rib cage do felt in few normal people, its not always abnormal. Few people do feel arterial Pulsations.
Better to get examined by qualified doctor once to check for any dilatation in arteries or liver problems.
