What are granulomated calcifications in the spleen? and what does this mean for my health? having pain in right abdominal area should i be worried?

Calcium in spleen: These usually occur when you live in a part of the country which has certain infection agents. This happens in the Ohio valley and parts of California. They result from healing. There should not be any long term effects
