Spleen Injury

2017-07-13 15:16:12
Can a blow to the back with a small stick causing abrasions of 3" x 1" on the left side of the back of the body, and another abrasion 1"x ½" on the left side of the back of the body cause an already enlarged spleen to rupture? Can a fall during a fight rupture an enlarged spleen? If so, how?
