Brief Answer:
She has an infection in left kidney which requires a strong antibiotic
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing in to us.
I have read through your query in detail.
Please find my observations below.
1. The CT scan report shows that the left kidney is enlarged in size and is showing delayed excretion of contrast which means that there is a possible infection which has appeared after the surgery to remove uterus and ovary.
2. Such an infection can originate in the urinary bladder and is probably affecting the left kidney.
3. It is important to send her urine and blood sample for culture and sensitivity to know which bacteria is causing the infection. A strong antibiotic can then be prescribed which will treat the infection and she should feel better within 3 days of starting treatment. The pain can be due to the infection and because she recently had the surgery. Pain relief medicines are to be given after examining the patient if required.
Hope your query is answered.
Please do write back if you have any doubts.

Brief Answer:
Please take her to a hospital having specialists in urology nephrology
Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXX,
Thanks for writing back with an update.
1. We understand that Kandukur is a small town and therefore you would like to take her to a higher center for better treatment.
2. It is important to take her to a place where there are multiple specialists. If you are close to XXXXXXX hospitals and feel that she will get better care then you can first consult a urologist or nephrologist doctor and then decide on shifting the patient.
3. XXXXXXX is a big city and there are many good specialists in urology. We are not liked to any particular hospital but suggest that Madras Medical College specialists can handle such cases. CMC Vellore is an alternative hospital where you can get good treatment.
In conclusion, please have a discussion with treating doctor and get reports showing which antibiotics will work best for the kidney infection even if you decide to get her treated in another hospital. This will help to start required treatment quickly.
Hope your query is answered.
