General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this problem your sister has with her spleen. The spleen is a big lymph node located in the abdomen just below the left ribcage. It can have many different disease conditions and I will like you to describe what your sister has so that we can suggest specific managment to that. In most cases, the spleen signals that something is going wrong in the body and not that it is in itself pathological. Please, describe her problem and I will be able to provide more specific information concerning this as spleen problem is very vague.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarification if need be. Thanks for using our services.
