One kidney smaller than the other

2023-06-27 18:50:21
My frien's one kidney is smaller than the other since his birth. I am really scared. Will his kidneys have any issues in the future? He has not had a check up for 15 years. He doesn't feel any problem except some migraines once in six months. I am so tensed. What should be done?
