Hi,
You may have a hernia in your lower abdomen that can cause a slight bulge and throbbing sensation. These are not serious and can often be confirmed on physical examination.
I would recommend a visit to your doctor who will be able to examine you. Possibly a scan of your abdomen may help to diagnose the problem and reassure you.
