I agree - get a second opinion! See if there is an after hours emergency clinic in your area. Purring that his is okay!

Xena fell off my roof (only a 1 level house) and got some bruising on her side/stomach and also developed cystitis from the fall/fright. Jimbo may have the same issue with cystitis which makes them pee really frequently but in tiny amounts as their bladder can't fill up. It's painful and they look like they are straining. The vet told me that the only way to know for sure if there was any internal damage with her urinary tract was to make sure she was peeing so watch Jimbo to make sure at least some urine is coming out or he may have a blockage. What really worries me is the swollen abdomen though as that could be from internal bleeding etc from the fall. Was it like that when the 1st vet saw him? I'd find an emergency vet and take him there ASAP today to get a second opinion (with a different vet). If they find his bladder is full they can empty it and decide if he has a blockage. If it's empty giving him fluids will help him get over the cystitis. Hope he's OK.

Go to another vet for a second opinion. No one here will be able to help you, since we cannot see your kitten and none of us are vets. Find another vet in town to go to just in case.
