∙ 11y agoThere are no 100% preventatives for kidney infections.

A Kink in your ureter, I just what is says.. It is a kink that is in the tube or tubes that go from your kidney's to your bladder. If there is a Kink it does not allow the urine from the kidney to drain properly. For me personally, it gave me cronic untreatable bladder infections, and consistent kidney infections. I also caused my kidney funtion to decline. By the time I had surgery my kidney function was only working at a 35% after the surgery, the infections went away, and my kidney function rose to 70%. However chronic infection did cause, damage to my kidney, and severe scar tissue around my bladder.
