Yes, he should go to the Doctor and have it looked at.
My son had a lump on his lower back and he was diagnosed with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. His spleen was very enlarged, pushing other organs aside, and his white blood cell count very high. Fortunately, there are some excellent new drugs available which are very effective against CML. My son is doing well right now.
The sooner your uncle goes to the doctor for an examination, the better. The earlier treatment begins for a serious illness, the more likely survival is. Go!
