hi
thanks for posting in HCM
I have understood your concern

small urethra leads to incomplete urination , that leads to collection of urine in bladder , there by back pressure on kidneys , hydroureteronephrosis and finally functioning of kidney comes down.

I can suggest you
1.serum creatinine
2.urine routine and culture
3.USG KUB - pre and post void , if it shows significant post void urine volume in the bladder, you need to be stented(tube placement).

hope this helps you
any further questions please let me know
thanks
