How would i tell if i hurt my spleen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only CT can tell : The spleen may be injured any time there is a significant impact to your lower left chest. It's difficult to tell pain from bruised or broken ribs in that area from a spleen injury. The only way to tell for sure is with a ct scan.
