Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it. It will destroy your brain cells, damage testicular cells that make testosterone, facilitate development of cancer in many organs, cause hepatitis, cirrhosis and pancreatitis etc. There is no safe level of alcohol intake. Quit while you are ahead.

Work up is needed in order to better understand the cause for his enlarged spleen. While sometimes the enlarged spleen is transient due to acute conditions, other time liver disease and blood disorders can cause an enlarged spleen among other conditions.
