A member asked:

Flank pain, both sides. scans show small cysts on each. no burning or blood in urine & i'm a bit of a couch potato. more likely muscular or mental?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain: In patients without signs of urolithiasis, or signs of kidney infection, a likely cause of bilateral back and flank pain would be of musculoskeletal origin. Renal cysts generally do not cause pain unless they become very large.
