What Causes Facial Bloating Along With Itchy Skin Post CT Scan?
3 years ago my husband had a kidney removed due to cancer. He had a CT scan yesterday because he has pain in the upper left side in his ribcage. The CT scan is hard on the kidneys and he feels like his face is bloated today and his skin is kind of itchy. Anything to worry about?

Hello,
I believe he may need to get further evaluated. CT scan is very important but also he may need to do an ultrasound to check liver and kidneys. He should follow up with his doctor.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
