Kidney Cysts Explained: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment by Dr. Abhik Debnath
PACE Hospitals
A kidney cyst is a fluid-filled sac that forms in or on the kidneys, often detected during imaging tests. While many cysts are simple and harmless, some may cause symptoms like pain in the back or side, fever, or frequent urination. Larger or complex cysts can sometimes lead to complications like infections or impaired kidney function. Treatment for kidney cysts depends on the size and symptoms. In most cases, small, simple cysts don't require treatment, but larger or symptomatic cysts may need draining or surgical removal to prevent further issues.

End-stage renal (kidney) disease (ESRD) also called as kidney failure, it is a condition in which the kidneys can no longer function properly. This can lead to a buildup of toxins and fluids in the body, which can be life-threatening. The symptoms of ESKD vary depending on the severity of the disease. The treatment for ESKD depends on the underlying cause of the disease. In some cases, medications or lifestyle changes may be helpful. In more severe cases, dialysis or a kidney transplant may be the only option.
Fructose is the primary nutrient in fruits and honey, giving them a sweet taste. High fructose intake, leading to diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and metabolic syndrome, increases the chronic kidney disease risk. Uric acid may directly damage the kidneys by causing scarring in the kidneys. In patients suffering from chronic kidney disease, it can worsen the protein loss in the urine.
Kidney disease can cause high potassium levels (hyperkalemia) or low potassium levels (hypokalemia). Hyperkalemia can cause clinical symptoms, which sometimes can need emergency management, such as muscle weakness, paralysis, paresthesia (abnormal skin sensations) and Cardiac arrhythmias (abnormal cardiac conduction changes which can be life-threatening). There are ways to control it by diet and lifestyle management.
In patients with Chronic kidney disease (CKD) who are not on dialysis, protein restriction in the diet is advised to slow the kidney disease worsening. Protein restriction helps in reducing the toxicity from uremic toxins whereas Protein energy wasting is common in patients on dialysis. It increases the risk of death.
In patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) carbohydrate metabolism is affected at various levels of insulin and glucose interaction leading to glucose intolerance (higher than normal blood sugar levels). Important abnormalities seen in CKD patients are insulin resistance, defect in insulin secretion, defect in insulin clearance and hypoglycemia.
Protein energy wasting (PEW) is common in patients with chronic kidney disease. As the severity of kidney disease increases malnutrition also increases. In India have shown that up to more than 90% of patients on dialysis have malnutrition in lower income group. More than 60% of middle-income group patients on dialysis have malnutrition. Nutritional therapy is important in patients with kidney disease because it helps in many ways.
