Pressure In Bladder, Frequent Urination. Diagnosed As Cysts In Kidney. Treatment?

the nurse gave me the results of my ultrasound and told me that I have simple cysts on my kidneys and that in six months I should consider having another ultrasound. My question is is that the reason I have such pressure in my bladder and such frequent unrination and what can be done? Also, shouldn't the dr. be calling me with these results and informing me what steps are next to be taken?

Urologist 's  Response
good day!

simple renal cysts are benign condition and rarely cause any signs and symptoms. the nurse is right in saying that we usually recommend biannual ultrasound to monitor these cyst for growth rate and changes in appearance.

I would suggest doing a urinalysis to check for infection which is the most common cause of burning sensation and urinary frequency. the renal cysts are not related to your urinary complaints.
