Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Cyst is an empty space in the organ (like kidney) filled with clear fluid. Unfortunately there is no other treatment (like some medicines). Usually policystic kidneys in some point needs to be removed as they are a source of infection.
Her pain can be caused by such infection. She needs to check it with urine analysis and ultrasound done. She should not wait with it as such infection in her case can be very serious.
For further treatment she might need kidney removal and transplant.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
