Nothing is wrong with you. This is common finding and as it says this is just mild dilatation. it means that there is some minor obstruction of your urogenital tract. This is most common in prostate or ureterocystic junction. You nned to do prostate ultarsound first to evaluate this. ALso there could be some stone which passed and it could cause calyceal dilatation. There is no treatment necessary at this point but taking enough liquids . YOu just need to do frequent check ups.WIsh you good health.
