How to shrink Kidney Cyst(Renal Cyst)
Experts: Kidney cyst is a common kidney disease and the cysts will not disappear by itself. The cysts can only grow larger and larger with age. And I think your cyst must have ruptured. Since most simple kidney cysts are benign and in the early stage do not cause any signs or symptoms to the patients, most doctors will ignore the cysts and only ask the patients to do regular tests and checks every half a year or one year to observe the growth condition of the cysts. However the cysts will grow continuously and when the cyst is larger than 3cm, it has the possibility of rupture. This is because the enlarged cysts will compress the surrounding tissues and cause the hypoxia and ischemia in the kidneys. Especially when the patients do not pay more attention to their daily diet and life habit, the cysts will grow rapidly and cause many symptoms and complications.(What should be done with Kidney Cyst Rupture?)In case of cyst rupture, patients usually suffer from infections and fevers. Have you experienced any discomforts during the last 6 months? Is There Any Medicine to Stop Growing Cysts in the Kidneys
Patient: Yes, I did have serious fever and pains in the belly once. I just took some antibiotics and painkillers. Is that all right, do I need other treatments?
Experts: In this condition, you need first do some related tests such as blood test, urine test, CT scan to make clear the current conditions. Though the cyst has gone, you need pay more attention to your kidneys since the cysts are easy to relapse. I recommend you to take some Chinese herbal medicines which have the functions of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and getting through the meridians so as to provide enough blood, oxygen and other necessary nutrition to the kidneys and lower the chance of the recurrent rate of the cysts. The Chinese medicines can also prevent the renal sclerosis and fibrosis and maintain the life activities in the kidneys
