A member asked:
I was just wondering if its possible for an enlarged spleen to push out your left lower rib cage? or what kind of things might cause your rib cage to protrude? thank you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Even a spleen I could see across the room would not do this. Most likely a congenital problem with rib cage its self. Show to Dr.
