Pain In The Abdomen. Swelling In The Kidney. What Are The Tests To Be Done?
talking to my family dr days before to get my kidney results he said my results came back normal. it is the 4th day i am in pain on my right side. week later spoke to my urologist?? told me oh did you know you right kidney is swollen right? shocked my dr would lie to me, getting kidney tests done this week. what could it be?
Hi, many thanks for the query! Stone in the ureter causes obstruction to urine outflow, so urine accumulates in kidneys causing so called swelling of kidneys i.e. Hydronephrosis, also, proximal to obstruction- Hydroureter. You need to do certain investigations- USG (Abdo-Pelvis), X-ray KUB, Sr. creat., Sr. BUN, Sr. Uric acid, Urine (Routine & Microscopy). For time being, you may take anti-spasmodics, pain killers with your doctor's opinion. Drink plenty of water so that at least 2 litres of urine is voided in 24 hrs. Wish you a good health. Take care. Regards.
