Hi,
How old is your son?
How long has he been diagnosed with hydronephrosis?
Has he had any other kidney and bladder related symptoms, such as urinary tract infections?
"Treatment depends on the severity and cause of the hydronephrosis. Children with mild hydronephrosis caused by mild obstructions may simply be monitored by renal ultrasound and VCUG and receive no treatment, as the problem is likely to correct itself. Infants will probably undergo these imaging tests at around 2-3 months of age.
Surgery relieves the obstruction or reflux causing hydronephrosis. "

The resolution of the hydronephrosis depends on the factors causing it and their management.
Do keep us posted on your doubts and progress
