Lately , I can feel my heartbeat in my butt. Does this mean anything as far as Crohns is concerned?
 
It may, depending on where in your butt it is. Think about when they put a blood pressure cuff on and when you can feel that pulse. It would suggest that wherever that vessel is that there is something putting an unusual or different pressure on it. As was mentioned in your neuropathy post, this is worth mentioning to a doctor. I can speculate on a bunch of reasons but they would all be speculation from someone not medically trained so I won't go there.
 
I felt that a few times while in a really bad flare. Not sure, but am thinking it maybe a sign that you're badly inflamed right now. Once the inflammation goes down, the sensation should. However, if it becomes bothersome I'd ask your advice nurse.

If I remember right, soaking in the tub might help some though...
