Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .
You have a severe pain in loin and your ultrasound Scanning has revealed a mass in left kidney ..The mass in the kidney is mostly malignant in nature and has to be confirmed by Ct scan of Kidney Ureter and Bladder with contrast study .

Please consult qualified Urologist for clinical examination and get following basic test done under his guidance ,
1) Plain C.T Scan of abdomen and pelvis
2) Contrast C.T Scan of Kidney ureter and bladder
3) Renal angiography

Further treatment will depend upon the results of the Ct scan and final diagnosis .

If turns out to be malignant tumor you will need to undergo surgery of Radical Nephrectomy .(Removal of Kidney).
