Is a 10mm kidney cyst serious?

Patient's question:

Recently, my appetite has been poor, and I've also noticed some swelling in my body. I feel completely weak. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it's kidney disease. Is a 10mm kidney cyst serious?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if it is just a kidney cyst, it will never cause significant interference to health, so there is no need to worry too much about the current situation. The most critical factor is to see how the patient's kidney function has been significantly affected, whether there are other factors leading to additional changes in the kidneys, thereby causing abnormal kidney function. Daily exercise can help improve the patient's immunity and prevent the recurrence of the condition.
