Suggest Treatment For Severe Fatigue And Abdominal Discomfort In A Child

No need to worry.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns for your son. The previous obstruction had led to backpressure, thus leading to swelling (balooning) of the portion of urinary tract prior to the obstruction. Even after surgical removal of the obstruction the damage already-done is not going to go away. The damage in the form of caliectasis (calyceal dilatation) and the remaining hydronephrosis and ureteric dilatation would stay but should not worsen any further. So, it is unlikely that there would be further worsening of kidney function. It is unnecessary to visit the nephrologist or urologist again and again. Rather, reserve the problems only for any acute condition, if it ever occurs (unlikely). I do not think that the kidneys will completely fail.
Feel free to write back.
