Suggest Treatment For Mass In Renal Pole

A Contrast CT scan was done on my boyfriend and they sound a solid mass on the upper pole of his left kidney. He also had extremely high blood pressure, and nausea and vomiting in addition to headaches. They discharged him and told us to follow up with a urologist but we have no insurance and cannot afford even the consult let alone any work. We're thinking of going back to the ER where they did admit him for a few days, but we would like to have a best/worse case scenario if possible. Thank you

Hi welcome to the health care magic

You are having mass on upper pole of kidney..

Kindly mention what CT scan report says whether it's a abscess or mass written?? What is the size of mass??

Let me know you this should not be neglected if mass written in CT scan report

For that USG guided biopsy taken and histopathology examination needed to rule out nature of lesion

If it is malignant then surgical removal necessary

If you can't afford private hospital then local government hospital or organization should be searched and get further investigation for mass in kidney

Hope your concern solved

Take care
