Hello and thanks for posting your query on HCM

Your report suggests that your bilateral kidneys are enlarged due to hydronephrotic process i.e. the kidneys are converted into cysts of various sizes and there is destruction of renal parenchyma.

Your urine culture shows growth of Proteus and antibiotic sensitivity is also done, so continue the treatment.

You should take plenty of water and foods which acidify the urine eg vegetables.

Once the inflammation is controlled the changes in the kidney will revert back to normal.



Thaks and take care
