Patient's question:
Half a month ago, there was hydronephrosis in the right kidney. The doctor in Jining said it's not a kidney disease, and now I can't eat dinner. I have lower back pain, leg swelling, and there are no stones. I had a severe urinary tract infection 20 days ago and took Qinglin Granules and Phosphomycin Amoxicillin Trihydrate. It's better now. Did this disease cause the hydronephrosis?Doctor's answer:
A common cause of renal hydronephrosis is diseases such as kidney stones, kidney tumors, and kidney tuberculosis. The treatment of renal hydronephrosis primarily involves treating the underlying cause that leads to it, such as kidney stones. In most cases, once the intestinal obstruction is resolved, the hydronephrosis will gradually subside. It is recommended to undergo further urinalysis and urographic imaging for examination. Once a definitive diagnosis is made, targeted treatment should be administered. Avoid using medication blindly to prevent delaying the condition. It is advisable for you to undergo urographic imaging to check for any urinary tract abnormalities that may be causing acute renal hydronephrosis!
