Is One Kidney Lead A Normal Life For Anyone?
Hi Doctor,
I have elder brother and he had obstruction problem in one kidney. We had consult regarding this problem to PGI Lucknow. We did some test according to Doctors instruction and after the report result, Doctors advised for the operation. They asked, some pus has been stored in one kidney so finally we have to removed through operation. We had no option and thought we should follow instruction of doctors advised. We are in hurry about kidney issues. Is one kidney lead a normal life for anyone ?

good day and thank you for being with health care magic!
Yes there are numerous studies that living with a solitary kidney still leads to a normal life as long as the patient would live a healthy life with adequate exercise and proper nutrition.
In my opinion since the affected kidney is full of pus and may lead to life threatening infections, it is better to heed your doctor's advise and have our removed.
