Renal cysts are small sacs or pockets that may be either filled with air, semisolid substances or fluids and will be present on the kidney. Hence they are also called renal cysts. Renal cysts are a type of kidney diseases that can develop on the kidneys as one or several cysts. Most of the time, these cysts are not cancerous and many people might not even be aware that they have developed these cysts. However, there are times when they may become severe and lead to cancer, which solely depends on the conditions that lead to their formation. In the following article we will be touching upon what renal cysts treatment involve and why it becomes necessary to treat them.
Symptoms of Renal Cysts
These are some of the symptoms that are noticed before an individual has to go in for a kidney cyst treatment:
Back pain
Stomach pain
Feeling full all the time.
Kidney pain

If the cyst is large then it might form a lump in the abdomen or back and leads to a distention.
Red tongue with a yellow coating on it.

Causes of Renal Cysts
Renal cysts can be formed due to a number of reasons. Let us see what some of these are:
Many people have renal cysts at birth which is caused due to genetics.
An obstruction in the kidney can lead to the formation of one or several renal cysts.
Many patients might even develop Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) which is again a genetic disorder that results in the growth of numerous cysts in the kidneys and leads to kidney damage along with the damage of surrounding organs.
Sometimes the growth of tapeworms in the intestines can also lead to renal cysts or cysts in other organs and is usually taken as a sign of decline in organ function.
Lymphatic obstructions and vascular disease can also cause renal cysts.
