View allI've just found out I have a 1.5 cm right renal simple upper polar cortical cyst. There's no hydronephrosis or calculus, but there's minimal free fluid in the pelvis. I'm really worried about what kind of treatment I might need and how quickly this can be resolved. Can you help me understand what steps I should take next?
Treatment for a simple kidney cyst depends on whether it's causing symptoms or blocking urine or blood flow: No symptoms: A doctor may monitor the cyst periodically. Symptoms: A health care provider may recommend treatment, such as: Sclerotherapy: A long needle is used to puncture the cyst under ultrasound guidance, then the cyst is drained and filled with a solution to harden it. This procedure is usually done on an outpatient basis with local anesthesia. Laparoscopy: A surgeon uses a laparoscope, a tube with a small video camera, to locate the cyst. The cyst is drained, then removed or burned. This procedure is performed in a hospital with general anesthesia and may require a one or two day stay.

I'm a bit worried about some issues with my foreskin. Should I be reaching out to a dermatologist or would a urologist be more appropriate for this? Not sure who to consult.

I keep getting small cuts on my foreskin during sex and sometimes it hurts a lot. It feels like phimosis but I really don't want to get circumcision or surgery. Are there any other treatments that could help with this?
Foreskin cuts and pain during intercourse may indicate phimosis; steroid creams and stretching exercises can help, but persistent symptoms may eventually need minor surgery.
