The spleen has functions such as haematopoiesis, blood filtration, removal of senile cells and participation in the immune response.
An enlarged spleen can have a greater impact on the body. An enlarged spleen can cause hyperfunction of the spleen, resulting in an excessive increase in the spleen’s ability to filter the blood and an excessive removal of white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets from the blood, causing a corresponding decrease, resulting in immune deficiency, spontaneous bleeding and anaemia.
An enlarged spleen can also lead to a weakened immune function, leading to serious infections in the body, and an enlarged spleen can also lead to symptoms such as loss of appetite and indigestion.
