Patient's question:
The day before yesterday, I wasn't feeling well, so I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. The doctor said I have a kidney cyst. I didn't know how it happened, so I'd like to ask how big a kidney cyst doesn't need to be addressed?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you visit the urology department of a hospital to see a doctor. Based on the results of a thorough examination, it will be determined whether treatment is necessary. The treatment of renal cysts primarily depends on the location and size of the cyst. If the cyst is larger than five centimeters, treatment will be required. Small cysts can be left untreated for now. Regular check-ups are sufficient. It is recommended that you have periodic examinations at the hospital to monitor how the cyst is expanding and then seek treatment if symptoms develop.
