How Can Pain Due To Unilateral Kidney Hydronephrosis Be Controlled?
I'm 28 year old female and have unilateral kidney hydronephrosis in my left kidney, apparently there is a 4cm dilation in the ureter at the renal pelvis. I am currently awaiting treatment (possibly they might repeat cystoscopy with a stent this time, I don't know yet what they might do?). Anyway, I'm in frequent pain with it daily and I was wondering if there is anything else I can do for the pain other than taking Tramadol and using hot water bottles? Treatment could be 10 weeks away!? Thank you!

You can try tab buscopan 10 mg twice daily and cause for hydronephrosis should be assessed like any stones or strictures etc.
