Is It Dangerous To Have Bloated Kidney And Kidney Infection?

Is kidney infection dangerous? I've got a family member who had a kidney stone stuck in the ureter (or somewhere along the tract, I'm not that sure), which resulted in a bloated kidney and kidney infection. I'm just a bit jittery and would like to know more.
