Patient's question:
My uncle has been experiencing swelling in his calf recently, a burning sensation during urination, and some facial swelling. He might have hydronephrosis because he has had it before. Which department should one visit for hydronephrosis?Doctor's answer:
If you need to visit a hospital for hydronephrosis, you should register under the Urology Department. The patient's condition is likely caused by conditions such as hydronephrosis or kidney stones. It is recommended to visit the Urology Department of a reputable and large hospital for treatment. Both parties should cooperate to conduct a thorough urine test and an ultrasound examination. Before the ultrasound, it is necessary to drink a large amount of water to fill the bladder. If the bladder is not sufficiently filled, it may affect the test results. Please pay attention to cooperate with the doctor's treatment.
