welcome to Health care magic.
1.Your course of action is for hernia, depending on the defect measurement and the symptoms you are facing - you should get it operated as soon as possible.
2.Renal cortical cyst can be there for life long, nothing will happens - but they do get complicated in very few cases, since you have noticed it, you just followup the cyst yearly once.
3.Rest all your report is normal.
4.See your surgeon and get the needful operation / mesh placement done.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
