Kidney cysts refers to a fluid-filled sac in the kidneys. The cystic epithelial cell can secrete liquid continuously and swell in size. A grown-up cyst of over 3cm can likely to get ruptured or combined with infections, which can result in blood in urine and aggravated back or abdominal pain.
Protein in urine usually indicates the injury of kidney filters (glomeruli). Normally, glomerular filtration membrane can block proteins from leaking into urine. But the growing cyst can oppress surrounding renal tissues and damage glomerulis, thus leading to protein in urine. Usually 24-hour urine protein level is less than 2g.
As we can conclude, the growing cyst is the root cause of blood and protein in urine. So it is suggested to shrink the cysts with traditional Chinese medicine, by which further damage of kidney can be avoided and symptoms can be eliminated.
