Patient's question:
In the hospital after a thorough examination, I found that I have a kidney cyst. I want to treat it with Traditional Chinese Medicine. Can Traditional Chinese Medicine treat kidney cysts?Doctor's answer:
You go to the hospital for a thorough examination and discover a kidney cyst. Kidney cysts are usually benign. If they are small, they will never cause any symptoms and will never cause any functional damage to the kidneys. Therefore, we generally do not treat them. If the cyst gradually decreases and it poses a threat to kidney function, we may need surgical treatment. Traditional Chinese medicine treatment is unlikely to be very effective; it mainly serves as a supplementary treatment.
