Which of the following may indicate polycystic kidney disease?

My relative recently got some tests done and the doctor mentioned 'polycystic kidney disease'. We're all a bit confused. What are some signs or findings that would typically point towards this condition?

If you're noticing persistent back or side pain, or blood in your urine, please don't just ignore it like I almost did with another condition. It's always best to get it checked by a doctor right away, don't delay.

Polycystic kidney disease can show up with symptoms like high blood pressure or pain in the back. If you are worried, it's good to talk to your doctor.

Oh, this sounds serious! I've read about polycystic kidney disease, and things like kidney stones or frequent UTIs can be signs too, along with that back pain. It's so scary to think about, better to get it properly diagnosed by a doctor.

I've been having some dull ache in my side sometimes, and my BP has been a bit high lately. Could these be signs? Has anyone else experienced these kind of symptoms and had it related to kidney issues?

Sunno, agar tumko high BP, ya kamar mein dard hai, aur family mein kisi ko kidney problem rahi hai, toh jaa ke doctor ko dikhao. Google pe sab mat dekho, asli test karwao.
