Hi,
Are you thin built? You should seek help of a Doctor or your GP who can confirm whether these are normal arterial pulsations or whether the arteries that you feel are enlarged or ectatic. As long as they are painless there is largely nothing to worry about. But getting an examination done would be better.
If all is fine, then probably you will have to get used to the odd feeling and not be perturbed by it.
Take care and do let us know if we can help you with any other queries on the subject.
