Kidney cyst- This is a benign formation, it is a cavity filled with liquid. Its wall consists of connective tissue. These cysts can grow up to 10 cm in diameter or more. They occur quite often; when examined using ultrasound, cystic formations on the kidneys can be detected in half of the population over 50 years of age. Moreover, they are found 1.5-2 times more often in men than in women.
Kidney cyst - Causes
A kidney cyst at a young age is usually a congenital disease, the cause is a genetic predisposition, a congenital abnormality of the kidney structure. In more mature age acquired cysts develop. They can form as a result of prolonged inflammation and have the ability to gradually increase. Cysts develop from the renal tubules and lose their connection with the remaining tubules and structures of the kidney after increasing in size to several millimeters. The cause of the development of a kidney cyst is the increased growth of epithelial cells lining the kidney tubules from the inside. The impetus for the development of a cyst can be kidney injury, sudden hypothermia, chronic diseases genitourinary system
Symptoms and signs
Cysts can remain asymptomatic for a long time. Often discovered incidentally during ultrasound. Symptoms appear when the cyst begins to enlarge, squeezing adjacent organs. Then the following symptoms occur:
- kidney enlargement;
- lower back pain, worse after physical activity;
— renal hypertension (increased “lower” pressure);
- violation of the outflow of urine from the kidney;
- blood in urine;
- circulatory disorders in the kidney.
Complications of kidney cysts - Treatment
The cyst is dangerous due to the following complications: suppuration, hemorrhage, rupture. These complications require emergency surgery. If the formation is less than 5 cm in diameter and does not cause disturbances in the blood circulation of the kidney and the outflow of urine, then it is simply observed. Elective removal surgery is suggested in the following cases:
- young or average age patient
- large cyst, leading to compression of surrounding tissues
- pain caused by the cyst;
- arterial hypertension;
- bleeding from the kidney;
- a cyst that interferes with the flow of urine
— infection;
- threat of rupture;
- cancer in a cyst
What to do if you find a cyst on your kidney
Open surgical treatment of a cyst is resorted to only when complications such as its suppuration or rupture, or malignant degeneration occur. Open operations are also performed in cases where, in addition to cystosis, there are concomitant urological diseases, such as urolithiasis.

years are a risky business.

Folk remedies for treating cysts in the kidney
From conversations with Svetlana Choizhinimaeva.
The cyst is rarely congenital. Acquired cysts are much more common. Moreover, it occurs in those who abused the cold: doused themselves cold water, wiped himself with snow, jumped into the pool after the sauna, or walked on the floor barefoot after the bath...
The kidney meridian starts from a point located approximately in the middle of the sole, and it is this point that receives a cold shock when we mindlessly cool the soles. Hardening is usually resorted to by middle-aged people with good immunity, but they are the ones who suffer pyelonephritis on their legs, often without even knowing about the serious illness. Untreated inflammation is localized in the form of a capsule, sometimes fibrous, that is, containing liquid inside.
The cyst itself is not dangerous if you do not provoke its secondary inflammation: avoid colds and genitourinary diseases. But secondary inflammation is dangerous: it is not known where
infection will occur. In addition, a cyst in the kidney is dangerous because it can compress nearby vessels - this is how hypertension is provoked.
A renal cyst requires that the feet are always kept warm. Winter swimming is especially unacceptable. Swimming in an ice hole, according to the firm belief of Tibetan doctors, is an absurdity that can only lead to serious chronic diseases.
The following folk remedies will help to avoid secondary inflammation of the kidney cyst:
1. Brew one tablespoon of dill or carrot seeds in a thermos overnight with 1 glass of boiling water. Drink 1 tbsp. l. 5-6 times a day for a week
2. 2-3 tbsp. l. oats are boiled in a glass of water for 20 minutes, adding as they boil. Drink half a glass 2-3 times a day for about a month.
3. 1 tbsp. l. lingonberry leaf or bearberry is boiled in 1 tbsp. water for 1 minute, leave for 30 minutes, drink half a glass a day for two weeks. (Bulletin of Healthy Lifestyle 2004, No. 9 pp. 6-7 – section “Winds from the East”)
Treating cysts with garlic is the best folk method.
Polycystic disease is a genetically determined disease, our task is to slow down its development. Although in practice there are cases when a kidney cyst can resolve. What should be done for this?
An infusion of garlic comes to the rescue, which is prepared as follows: peel 1 kg of garlic
and pass through a meat grinder. Pour 1 liter of boiled chilled water, leave in a dark, sealed container for 1 month, shake from time to time. Strain the resulting mixture. Store in a cool, dark place.
Take 2 tbsp. spoons, washed down with 0.5 cups warm milk 3 times a day half an hour before meals. The course of treatment is the entire portion of the infusion (10-15 days), treat the kidney cyst with this folk remedy every three months, then do an ultrasound. In general, garlic infusion is truly a fantastic thing. It strengthens the heart valves, rejuvenates and is indispensable in the treatment of polycystic disease.
It is also recommended to brew burdock leaves as tea and drink them for a month, or maybe more, it all depends on the ultrasound readings.

A cyst is a benign spherical tumor that develops inside or outside the kidney. This tumor is hollow, filled with a viscous yellowish liquid, appearing unnoticed by a person, without pain or problems. But sometimes patients notice nagging pain in the side, and an increase in renal pressure is possible.
The appearance of a cyst is a genetic phenomenon. Also, a cyst can appear if a person suffers from chronic pyelonephritis, has poor nutrition, is injured, or is hypothermic.
This tumor will interfere with the functioning of the kidney, especially if it appears in the renal pelvis. Impaired urine outflow, bleeding, cyst rupture – these are the negative complications that await the patient. In acute cases, the tumor can be removed surgically. But wise traditional medicine offers several ways to treat cysts, which we will consider below.
To ensure that the cyst does not grow too quickly or begins to shrink, you should definitely follow some dietary restrictions. Patients diagnosed with hypertension and edema should consume less salt.
If swelling is detected and urine flow is difficult, it is not recommended to drink a lot of water. However, you should not limit yourself in fluid intake if the development of the cyst has not affected the excretory function of the kidneys and arterial hypertension is not observed.
Patients who have a cyst are recommended to completely exclude any legumes, seafood, meat dishes, sour cream, cream, smoked foods, and follow a low-protein diet from their usual daily diet. You should not get carried away with chocolate, coffee drinks, soda, fried, excessively fatty and spicy foods, eliminate alcohol, consume milk, cottage cheese, and fermented milk products with lipotropic properties.

Only fluffy and yellowed reed panicles, no smaller than the size of a palm, are useful for treatment. Two panicles are poured with two liters of boiling water. Wrap the vessel and let it sit thoroughly. Drink the medicine in a glass of 200 g. three times a day, 30 minutes before meals. The duration of the course of treatment is one month; if the cyst has not disappeared during the current period, it is repeated. The solution will be preserved better in the refrigerator than at room temperature.
Pine nut shells have a beneficial effect on reducing kidney cysts. Add half a glass of shells to half a liter of water and boil it for an hour over low heat in a sealed container. Take the resulting decoction, a quarter cup, three times a day on an empty stomach.

Burdock juice
Burdock juice can also help with this ailment. From several burdock leaves, use a juicer to get a little oka. You should take freshly squeezed juice for sixty days, a tablespoon three times a day before meals. The juice is prepared fresh every day, because during storage it loses its medicinal properties.

At the moment of prayer, with faith in its fulfillment, the body’s protective functions receive a strong charge, they mobilize their strength and capabilities.

- genitourinary infections. Often the cause of pathology in women is advanced gynecological diseases;
- the presence of chronic foci of inflammation in the body;
- old age. As a result of wear and tear of the body, decreased immunity, irreversible processes occur that lead to the formation of cysts in the kidneys;
- previous surgical interventions on the kidneys or other organs of the urinary system;

When results are noticeable
Like any treatment, folk recipes are aimed at a positive result. Unfortunately, a kidney cyst cannot be quickly treated, and 2 weeks of taking medications will not show any improvement. The results themselves depend on many factors: on the timely start of treatment, on the initial size of the cyst, on individual characteristics body and the type of treatment chosen.
The first changes and improvements can be noticed after 3 months of treatment. At this stage, there may be a reduction in the size of the cyst, and, accordingly, a decrease in the pain accompanying the disease.
Long-term and careful use of folk remedies, from six months or more, gives a more tangible result: asymptomatic progression of the disease, a significant reduction in the cyst (for initially large sizes) or its complete disappearance/resorption (for initially small and medium sizes).
