Spleen pain is usually felt in the upper left part of your abdomen, under your rib cage. It can be a sharp pain or a dull ache. Sometimes it even spreads to your left shoulder. If it's severe or sudden, please see a doctor quickly.

I once felt a weird discomfort, like a dull ache, exactly under my left rib. Could that be spleen pain? Did anyone else feel it there? It made me quite nervous.

Oh, the spleen is on your left side, under the ribs. If it hurts, it's usually felt there, sometimes sharp, sometimes just a heavy feeling. Don't fret too much, but always get it checked by a good doctor.

I got really scared once thinking I had spleen issues because I felt a peculiar ache under my left rib. But it was just gas! Spleen pain is typically a constant or sharp ache in that upper left abdomen area. Don't panic, but do get it checked if it persists.

Spleen pain? Probably where my last good night's sleep went, under my left rib cage. If it's actual spleen pain, it's gonna be on your upper left side, man. Hopefully, it's not actually your spleen, that sounds rough.

Ramesh Kumar · Answer

The spleen is located in the upper left abdomen, under the rib cage. Pain there can indicate an issue. While some minor discomforts might respond to rest, any severe or persistent pain in that region means a doctor's visit is essential.
