Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
There are hundreds of causes for splenomegaly. Many infection like malaria, kalaazar, leukemia, lymphoma, storage disease, congestion all can lead to splenomegaly. You should go for bone marrow examination. It may help you to search the cause. Then you should take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have any doubts then contact me at bit.ly/Drsanghvihardik, I will be happy to answer you.
