A member asked:

24 yr old girl have pain in my left side near ribs an is swollen an painful. also sometimes i pass blood in my stool but don't have fever or anything?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Needs evaluation: Both an enlarged spleen as well as gas trapped at the flexure of the large intestine from horizontal or the descending portion could cause swelling and pain in this location. With blood is stools, it may be as simple as mild constipation and anal fissure, but colitis, enlarged spleen or even enlarged kidney or kidney stone, etc. need to be considered and ruled out.
