                                            Question : yesterday am taken USG scan reports shown 4mm stone and small cyst request some advice
                            
                                    Brief Answer:
Stone is small in size
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Kidney stone of 4mm size has a good chance of getting washed out with hydrotherapy. Hydrotherapy is drinking lots of water and taking pain killers if needed. The kidney stone management should be done under guidance of a surgeon. Drink clean water.
A simple small kidney cyst is always harmless and nothing needs to be done. If its a big cyst or producing symptoms, then a surgeon can manage it.
