What Causes Ankle Swelling And Blood In Urine After Having Stents In Kidney?
Hi my Dad just had stents put into his kidneys when he went into renal failure. All his numbers have been great in the hospital. He has been home one day and his ankles are starting to swell and his is continuing to see blood in his urine. He says his output is still good, but I am concerned the swelling is a warning sign.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, with the renal disease already on stent and now having hematuria and lower limb swelling is matter of concern, and it need to be investigated and ultrasonography and serum creatinine is must, without knowing this it can be treated well, it may be sign of renal failure again, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
