Female left kidney cyst

Renal cysts are no longer a difficult disease so far, but they are very painful after they occur. For example, women are more likely to develop renal cysts, and they often appear in the left kidney. This is mainly due to excessive work fatigue, coupled with the possibility of some hidden diseases in the body, which leads to the occurrence of renal cysts. Renal cysts often cause low back pain and discomfort after they occur, and a detailed understanding and knowledge of the condition is required.

What are the causes of left kidney cysts in women?

As the name suggests, left renal cyst is the concentrated manifestation of renal cyst on the left kidney.

Generally speaking, most patients with left kidney cysts do not have any symptoms. Some patients may experience symptoms due to the enlargement of the cyst itself or local infection, such as discomfort or heaviness and pain in the waist and abdomen, a feeling of fullness, and microscopic hematuria or hematuria visible to the naked eye during routine urine analysis during physical examination. Some patients can feel the enlarged kidney on the left side of the waist.

The specific cause of the formation of left kidney cyst may be related to the renal tubular diverticulum. Because this disease is more common in middle-aged and elderly women in their 50s. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, cysts are generally related to insufficient qi and blood, phlegm and blood stasis, which in turn cause poor local circulation and condense into local cysts. At the same time, this problem is often related to women's personality. Women of this age are often in menopause, and their emotions are prone to fluctuations. Those with poor self-control are more likely to have this problem.

Another reason is that women are more susceptible to infection than men due to the special structure of their urinary tract, so bacteria can easily travel back through the urinary tract to the kidneys, which may increase the occurrence of cysts. Therefore, no matter what the circumstances, keeping a good mood, avoiding infection, or promptly treating infection if it occurs are the keys to prevention.
