My father (Aged 75 years, patient with high BP since last 30 years) was diagonised suffering from GRADE  3 Prostatomegaly (after carrying out ultrasound test + CT Scan).  Also, Gross PVR with Chronic Cystitis was the impression given in these reports. (Pre void - 2547 cc PVR - 1498) Serum creatinine in blood was found around 4.5 mg/dl. Since last 4 weeks, he is with Foleys bulb (initially for evacuating the urine blocked). Now, after 4 weeks, Serum creatinine is found reduced to 2.1 mg/dl.potassium -  4.3 mmo/lSodium - 148 mmo/l  As per latest ultra sound report (after 4 weeks):-Grade 3 Prostatomegaly with Chronic Cysts-Bilateral Moderate Hydrourteronephrosis-Bilateral Renal Cortical Cysts Other aspects: -Right Kidney: Moderate dilatation pelvicaliceal system and ureter noted. Cortical Cyst in upper pole measuring 3.7 x 3.0 cm.-Left Kidney : Moderate dilatation pelvicaliceal system and ureter noted. Cortical Cyst in upper pole measuring 2.5 x 2.1 cm.-Urinary bladder : Gross mucosal thickening noted.-Prostrate: Enlarged in size with normal echogenisity. Weight - 180 gms. My queries are: - Are the Cortical Cysts in Kidneys need to be treated to further reduce serum creatinine to normal level ?  - (Note: He is strictly following diet - low sodium, low potassium + medicine for BP changed + Blocked urine emptied in last 4 weeks). No back pain, No pain near hip.... complaint, - Still, is it recommended to have Foleys bulb/tube for 3 to 4 weeks ?- Can enlarged prostrate can be shrinked using medicines for improving lower urinary tract /passage ? (Note: As per my father, even 4 weeks back, he is releasing urine freely - not aware that some amount blocked inside itself) - no inflammation etc -  -How to improve bladder distended bladder (thickned walls) ? Any medicines recommended at this stage ?  Kindly suggest.    -
