summary

Once splenomegaly occurs in the human body, it is generally harmful to the body and should be treated as soon as possible. However, physiological splenomegaly is an exception. Let's share with you what is physiological splenomegaly.

What is physiological splenomegaly

First of all: in the normal state, the spleen can not be touched, if the supine or right lateral position may touch the edge of the spleen, it can be considered as splenomegaly. In recent years, B-ultrasound has been widely used in clinical, and found a large number of "splenomegaly" that can not be touched by hand.

Secondly: in the physical examination, about 15% of the patients showed splenomegaly by B-ultrasound, most of which could not be touched by hand. B-ultrasound showed splenomegaly through actual measurement, that is, it was really large, which could show splenomegaly earlier. When the hand could touch the spleen, the spleen had doubled.

Finally: in general, splenomegaly is caused by common hepatitis and cirrhosis. It's better to go to the hospital for detailed examination and diagnosis. Physiological splenomegaly has no hypersplenism symptoms and no other physical discomfort, but it needs to be reviewed regularly after the diagnosis.
