First, do not put off seeing a professional medical care provider. It is important now and for your future. Cracked ribs "under [the] left shoulder" sounds like an injury that is "too high" to affect the spleen. Your lungs are up there. Cracked ribs require diagnosis, and only a doctor or qualified professional can do this. The problem is that the cracked ribs may not be all that is wrong. And that is where they doctor is worth his weight in gold. Cracked ribs don't get a lot of "treatment" per se 'cause there isn't a lot that can be done to help them heal except for the patient to minimize movement. (No taping or wrapping.) A ruptured spleen means internal bleeding, and that is bad. Any diarrhea isn't caused from cracked ribs. That's a long stretch for a causal connection. Please go someplace and have yourself checked out. Be clear and honest about what happened so other damage can be diagnosed accurately. It's your health, and you only get one issue of it.
