My daughter has a mildly enlarged spleen due to epstein bar virus. Her IGG was 8.0. She is feeling really bad. Really hurts under her left rib cage. Is it okay to put a heating pad on an enlarged spleen? Her ct scan performed 2 days ago showed mild splenomegaly. She is taking Ibuprofen and Tramadol for the pain. SHe is taking a multivitamin and B-100. He gave her Celebrex but she cant take Advil with that and the Advil seems to work better than Celebrex. Any other suggestions?
Hither for asking to ChatDoctorHeating pad is used for superficial muscular problem say any inflammation not deep-seated, one more thing I would like to say here that you can not use heating pad in liver pathology it won't help here neither this Technic helps in other way it is just exerting the best placebo support and patient feel very good with worm sensation have nice day.
