General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The swelling is due to a blockage that does not allow urine to come down to the urinary bladder for normal urination. If this condition prolongs, it can damage the kidney.

A cystoscopy examines the lower part of the urinary system. Since, the cystoscopy report was normal, it is possible that the problem is in the upper part of the urinary system.

To understand the problem and avoid renal damage, an MRI scan should be done as soon as possible. Renal repair can be done accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Anila Skenderi
