Suggest Treatment For Renal Cyst.
Hello Doctor, I am age of 40 and had back pain two days before , last ultrasound scan found 5mm BILATERAL RENAL CALCULI on FEB2014 / under treatment, so the doctor suggested me to take Ultrasound scan today. The report shows that still 5mm RENAL CALCULI and There is a small cyst measuring 9 * 5 mm seen in mid pole - No hydronephrosis / hydroureter (RIGHT RENAL CYST). My questions is that the RIGHT RENAL CYST found today by scan, could you please suggest what kind of treatment for RENAL CYST, is it common and curable. Thanks & Regards Baskar.

hello
welcome to hcm
well you dont need to worry about the RENAL CYST found incidentally on ct scan if its not causing any hydronephrosis or derangements of renal functions...renal cysts can occur in many healthy individuals and in most of the cases it doesnt cause any problems in any ways so you dont need to worry at all...to be extra careful you should just get your RFT ( RENAL FUNCTION TESTS ) done once in a year every year to see if your kidneys are working fine...thats all you need to do so dont worry about renal cyst,it wont cause any harm
