Hello! This is urgent. I don't want my mom to know, however, have told a trusted gaurdian. Yesterday, I was in a game of basketball at school, and a larger kid came at me and when my arms were up elbowed me(Pretty hard) right under my rib cage and in that tender place between your hip and ribs. It's my spleen I think. I have done research and do not have pain in my left shoulder, no weariness or headaches, however do have pain when I get out of bed or walk or stand or twist. I can touch around and it only hurts when I touch my upper hip bone. I'm not sure what to do, do you gusy think it will heal on it's own or should I seek medical help immediately? Please help. I Have anxiety and am not sure what to do at this point. It feels better from yesterday, but still hurts. Help!!

    I think you should tell yuor mom and go seek medicl care immediately. Go to the ER,  Most pobably it is a brusied rib but you need to make sure.
