Side Pain - Left
I have done X-Ray and Scan for my mother and in the report it says :
"Mild pelvocalyceal dilatation is noted in the left kidney. Cannot completely exclude a left ureteric calculus. However acute UTI cannot be excluded. Right urine jet seen only. No left urine jet seen."
If you could help me identify what is the actual problem. My mother is having side pain regularly time to time.
