I just had an ultra sound done because I had a trace of blood in my urine and when the test was done they found a spot on my left kidney. My creatine levels are on the upper end of normal. I have an appointment for a MRI to do look further. Are all spots cancer or are there any other things that could create spots?
HelloThanks for query. You had a hematuria and your ultrasound scanning has revealed spots in the Left kidney. This could be due to one of the either two reasons 1) Infective process 2) Tumor either benign or Malignant. You need to consult qualified Urologist for clinical evaluation and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis .1) Urine routine and culture.2) C. T scan of abdomen and pelvis with and without contrast .3) MRI Further investigations if required and treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis. Chat Doctor.
