What causes a cyst in the left kidney of a woman?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely exhausted. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was kidney disease. Could you please tell me what causes a left kidney cyst in women?

Doctor's answer:

The causes of renal cysts are multifaceted, potentially involving congenital factors as well as acquired factors. Acquired factors can include various possibilities, such as the impact of external adverse factors or dietary interference. Generally, cysts are relatively small and will not affect overall health. Special treatment is not required, and regular follow-up renal ultrasound examinations are sufficient. If the cyst size is larger, surgery may be necessary if circumstances require it.
