[|Human|] hi! my mother recently underwent urine and blood test because her legs is swelled after the test the doctor confirmed that her kidney is infected and this is at early stage and the doctor gave her some medicines to recover. i just wanted to know that its not kidney failure right and do we need to consult a nephrologist now ?
[|AI|]  Hello, If the doctor you are consulting have diagnosed her to have kidney infection and already given probably antibiotics for the same it will take around 5 to 7 days to get it right. Her leg might be swelled because the functioning of kidney must be hampered due to some reason like infection. I would advise you to complete the course of medication prescribed to you and see whether the swelling improves. If it doesn't even after completing the course, you can repeat the urine routine examination and serum creatinine and urea and either get back with me or you can consult a nephrologist.  I would be glad to help you out. Thank you
