The last visit to the dr. I was told that my daughter is fine and that there was no blockage and the kidney was working properly it was just swollen and he was gonna check it every 3 months to make sure it was growing properly (just him being cautious so he says). I got my daughter's medical records because I switch dr. and found out that she has grade 3 Hydronephrosis, her kidney has a small blockage and it's not functioning properly. It takes her kidney 18 minutes to empty and only does 25% of the work but her normal kidney does 75% and takes only 8 mintues to empty.

I think you misinterpreted what he said. Swollen would include temporary blockage that would go away when the swelling did. That is a medical opinion. He also said it needed to be monitored. I do not see a case. He gave a medical opinion based on that day and time. The reports are done by another doctor in most cases who interpret them and your doctor simply conveys the interpretation.
