I'm really concerned because my left kidney is measuring 7.2 cm by 3.9 cm, and I'm experiencing a swollen face, dark facial color, and leg edema. Is this a dangerous situation, and is there any way to treat this permanently?

I'm really worried about my daughter's health. She was born with just one kidney, and even though shes been sticking to strict diet and lifestyle changes, her creatinine levels are still going up. It's now at 2.3. Plus, she's dealing with high blood pressure. Currently, she's on Olmezest 40, Moxovas 0.3, and Folvite. What can we do to help manage her increasing creatinine levels and high BP? Looking for any advice or steps we can take.
