I am having a hard time finding out whether or not my severe pain on my right side could be caused by a 1 cm mass on my left kidney.
I went to the hospital because I was having severe pain on my right side and the CT scan did not show anything on my right side, they did however find out that I had a 1 cm mass on my left kidney, is it possible that the pain I am experiencing on my right side is from my kidney mass on my left side?
I am scheduled to see a Urologist on 02/22/21, but apprehensive about what they may find.
