General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Do an ultrasound and check the diameter of each kidney. Also do a renal function test. If the diameter is less than 15 mm and renal function is not impaired, we can manage conservatively with antibiotics and frequent monitoring. If the diameter is increased and renal function is abnormal, we have to go for surgical correction. As of now continue both the antibiotics to prevent infections.

Wishing you good health.

Thanks.
