Hello,
Bulging of one kidney is probably due to hydronephrosis of that kidney. There may be any obstruction in pelviureteral junction or left ureter for a long time which is persisting. Removal of obstruction may be beneficial for her.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Tanmay Mukherjee
