Friend has been experiencing frequent urination and urgency recently, sometimes without much energy. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found that both kidneys have cysts. What should be done about bilateral renal cysts?Doctor's answer:
Kidney cysts are a relatively common benign inflammatory condition, and there is currently no specific medication for their treatment. The management of kidney cysts determines the size of the cysts and related clinical symptoms. Generally, smaller cysts should be monitored with follow-up without specific treatment. For larger cysts, those that cause symptoms by compressing surrounding tissues may require surgical treatment. In daily life, it is important to avoid collisions. It is recommended to pay attention to rest and follow medical advice for postoperative rehabilitation. Some surgeries require a complete return to normal diet after (passing gas). Postoperative diet should be light, easy to digest, and nutritious, avoiding spicy and irritating foods. The living environment should be kept dry and well-ventilated to prevent dampness.
