Patient's question:
For a week, I've had right waist pain and discomfort in the abdomen, with a drop in blood pressure. I took antihypertensive medication myself, and once the effect kicked in, my blood pressure went back up. Today, I went to the hospital and was diagnosed with a kidney cyst. I don't want surgery, so I'm asking here if there are any particularly effective folk remedies for treating kidney cysts.Doctor's answer:
Hello. The effectiveness of folk remedies in alleviating symptoms and their ability to promote self-healing of diseases are not yet clear. Some folk remedies may delay proper treatment and, in severe cases, can be life-threatening. For kidney abscesses with mild symptoms, effective treatment may not be necessary. However, surgery may be required when necessary to go beyond the goal of relief, with a relatively good prognosis. Additionally, if the body shows signs of discomfort again in daily life, it is important to seek immediate medical attention for follow-up. It is absolutely forbidden to self-medicate or use other drugs without authorization to avoid further discomfort.
