Ribs or spleen.: You should be evaluated by a doctor to determine if pain is coming from your rib cage (perhaps you bruised it in sports), or from your spleen (which can enlarge due to viral illness). The cause will then determine treatment. More specific advice @ healthtap.com/saurbornmd. Click Send Message to begin.
