Is It Normal To Have Enlarged Scrotum With Edema?

My husband has kidney failure but not on dialysis yet. He now has edema. Water retention. Belly, legs all over. He is taking Metolazone, and torsomide. His swelling is not down. He also has an enlarged scrotum. Is that normal with edema? Never had that swell up before!! His kidney is working only 9%!

Hello
Thanks for query.
Your husband has generalized anasarca due to chronic renal failure (CRF)

Please get his renal function tests done and consult qualified Nephrologist for evaluation and further treatment.
