Homeopathic Medicine For Splenomegaly (ENLARGED SPLEEN)
Splenomegaly refers to the enlargement of the spleen, an organ located under the ribcage on the left side of the abdomen. The spleen plays a crucial role in the immune system, blood filtration, and storage of platelets.
Conditions can lead to splenomegaly:
Infections: Certain infections, such as mononucleosis (caused by the Epstein-Barr virus), malaria, and bacterial infections like endocarditis, can result in spleen enlargement.
Liver diseases: Conditions that affect the liver, such as cirrhosis and portal hypertension, can lead to increased pressure in the veins connected to the spleen, causing it to enlarge.
Blood disorders: Diseases affecting blood cells, such as leukemia, lymphomas, and hemolytic anemias, can contribute to splenomegaly.
Inflammatory conditions: Autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus can cause inflammation in the spleen, leading to enlargement.
Metabolic disorders: Certain metabolic conditions, including Gaucher’s disease and Niemann-Pick disease, can result in splenomegaly.
Trauma: Injury or trauma to the spleen can cause it to swell.
Cancers: In some cases, cancers that originate in the spleen or spread to it can cause enlargement.
