Answers: You will probably always have cysts on your kidneys, but MOST of the time it is absolutely nothing to worry about. They are usually something you are born with or they can occur if you have UTIs (bladder infections) a lot. Don't agonize over it.

(Just in case you are doing research, there is a serious heritable condition called polycystic kidney disease which is not what you have)
