A member asked:
I found out my spleen is enlarged. now it is numb in that same area. my left side just under my ribs. what could that be? or why is it numb?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Numbness not spleen: Often a large spleen does not cause any symptoms in the spleen area. If you have new symptoms you need to discuss with your physician. I doubt this is the spleen. Your physician will clarify this for you.
