Hi There

After going through your query I understand your concern.

I would like to tell you that the condition of swollen kidney is called hydrnephrosis. It can be unilateral or bilateral. Hydronehrosis happens because of kidney stone, UTI, tissue injury , tumor or cancer and enlarged prostate.

Nephrologist / Urologist consultation is highly recommended for further evaluation and treatment.

Hope this will help

Kind Regards
I find this answer helpful
