Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Recently had an ultrasound and discover 2 cyst 1 in left kidney and 1 in right kidney, 2 cyst in spleen and a rough liver. My doctor said no alarm the size is normal for the liver, spleen and kidney. Is there anything that can be taken to slow the growth
Generally renal and splenic cysts only require follow up ultrasound. Cysts are generally due to age related developmental causes. If size of cyst increases or there is infection,pain etc then it may require further investigations and treatment.These conditions may need definitive treatment for cysts.
Generally simple cysts only need watchful observation.Medicines are usually not prescribed.
Get well soon. Take Care Dr.Indu Bhushan
