A member asked:
Pain in left shoulder especially when turning head to the right, how can i be sure this is a pulled muscle and not my spleen, pain under left rib too?

See a doc: It is unlikely that you have an abdominal problem unless you recall a history or injury etc. Its likely your neck or shoulder. Nevertheless if concerned about spleen seek care at an emergency room.
