Is it Loud Inside Our Bodies?

746 views

Weird question but the body does a lot of cool things, while eating for example, but just in general keeping us alive, pumping blood and oxygen around it.
It just kinda made me think, if we were inside our bodies, would it be loud or just kinda quiet, I don’t know if there is a scientific explanation.

Before modern imaging technology a stethoscope was the best way for a doctor to know what’s going on inside us without cutting us open. Doctors obviously still use them, but the ability to make sense of all the various noises our body makes used to be a central part of medical training. If you’ve ever listened to any part of your body with a stethoscope you know that we are indeed super noisy inside.
