Kidney cysts are pouches of fluid that form on the kidneys and are usually harmless. Most of them are so small they don't cause any symptoms and are known as simple kidney cysts. In some cases, however, the symptoms of kidney cysts can impair kidney function.

A kidney infection is a painful condition caused by bacteria that travel from your bladder into one or both of the kidneys. Kidney infections are rare, and are more likely to occur in women. The symptoms of a kidney failure will usually develop rapidly over a period ranging from a few hours to a few days. The most commonly reported symptom is a pain in lower back of your genitals, or in the lower back. As a result of the infection, a fever of up to 103.1F may be present; this may also lead to shivering or chills. 
Other symptoms may include: a feeling of weakness; being excessively tired; and diarrhea. If you also have urethritis (an infection of the urethra), you may also experience pain while urinating or blood in the urine. If you notice any of these symptoms, it is imperative to consult your doctor immediately. The treatment of a kidney infection will generally involve a course of antibiotics to be taken at home, as well as painkillers if needed.  

Conditions

"Condition" is a general term for particular abnormal diseases that negatively affect a part or all of the body. Conditions are not due to any external injury. Therefore, a broken bone does not classify as a condition, whereas Herpes, OCD, Shingles, and Ulcers do.

Medical conditions are classified by specific symptoms and signs. While each person's experiences can vary, there are consistent signs and symptoms that doctors will look for when diagnosing their patients. We always recommend that people seek a professional diagnosis. Afterward, supplement medical advice and opinion with accurate and easy to read information.

Most people only spend an average of a couple minutes with their doctor during a checkup. Oftentimes patients don't receive the fullest explanation of their diagnosis.
