What Causes Mass In Kidney?

I have a pressure feeling on my left kidney. My blood pressure was 152 over 89. I was recently diagnosed with a 1 1/2 in mass on my left kidney. I have been to a neurologist and had a sonogram done. He said he is nt sure what it is without more tests. My blood work showed 11.94 for my WBC. He gave me Cipro, because I was having pain on my left abdominal sidedown low. he said that does nt have anything to do with the mass that has been found. Can you answer any of my questions. Thank you

Hello
Thanks for query .You have been detected to have renal mass on left side while being investigated for discomfort in Left loin.

It is utmost important to get further investigations done to know the nature of mass.(Whether Benign or Malignant )

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical evaluation and get following tests done to establish diagnosis.
1) Intra Venous Pyelography (I.V.P).
2) Contrast Ct Scan of Kidney Ureter and Bladder (KUB)

Further treatment will depend upon final diagnosis .
