Does having kidney stones contribute to kidney cysts? I had a kidney stone earlier, removed through tablets, now I have a cyst in the same kidney.
That's interesting. Can you tell me more about those risk factors?
Sure. Genetics play a role in the development of both kidney stones and cysts. Lifestyle factors such as diet, alcohol consumption, and obesity can also contribute to the risk of developing these conditions. Additionally, certain medical conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes can increase the risk of developing both kidney stones and cysts.
