YOU OR YOU KNOW SOMEONE HAS SPLEEN DISEASE?

Alhamdullilah i never had any spleen disease but i have seen patients in hospital. Recently i have my duty rotation in peads ward. There i see a boy with thalassemia major. He has enlarged spleen which is also called splenomegaly.This enlarged spleen is due to increased red blood cell count. As spleen filters the red blood cell ut become overwhelmed with the abnormal red blood cells.
