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 how to treat polycystic kidney disease?Doctor's answer:
Hello. Based on your description of the issue, polycystic kidney disease is an inherited condition. If there are no other specific discomforts at the moment, such as obvious lower back pain or hematuria, it doesn't need to be addressed for now. If the cysts are relatively large, timely extraction of cyst fluid or cyst removal surgery may be necessary. Regularly monitor the changes in kidney function through intermittent follow-up of urinary system color Doppler ultrasound. Actively participate in physical exercise to regulate physical and mental health, and maintain personal hygiene.
