Suggest Treatment For Liver Cysts

default
Posted on Wed, 11 Mar 2015
Question: I have been diagnosed with liver cysts. The last test showed a couple more. Now I am experiencing a little bulge in that area when lying down, and a sense of crowding in that area when sitting. I was told that nothing is usually done for these cysts, but I am wondering if they might be the cause of my sense if feeling tired and a little unwell for the past few months.

Brief Answer:
They do not cause problem usually.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Most of the liver cysts are asymptomatic. They do not cause much problems.
If the size of the cysts are very big,they can be seen or felt .It can be palpated if they are huge.
Your doctor has rightly said nothing has to be done.
They have to be observed.
They do not cause tiredness.
Please consult your doctor and get an Ultrasound abdomen every 6 Months so that progression of the Cysts can be assessed.
Hope I answered your query.
If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
