Maybe spleen hurting or enlarged or maybe kidney pain. l side of abdomen hurts. what could that be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Consider the colon: Spleen pain is unusual unless a history of a splenic disease, blood disease, infection as malaria or typhoid (high fever). Trauma could cause rib fracture and splenic injury. Kidney pain in the side is towards the back and may be due to stone or infection. Irritable colon, constipation, diverticulosis, excessive gas build up are all possible. Pleurisy? If related to breathing. Need a dr's exam.
