Dear Madam, ultrasound does not diagnose all kidney stones. Swelling is generally not a symptom of kidney stones. You will need a more detailed evaluation to see if the stones are still present and the level of your kidney function. You might need to undergo a CT scan and few urine and blood tests for the same. Hope my answer is helpful. Please take care.
