Hi Mr Numan, don't worry, what symptoms do you have, why you did this USG. Renal cortical cyst is benign condition where immediately we don't have to do anything.
Gall bladder polyp of size 5.5 mm if you have symptoms we may have to do blood test and CT scan of abdomen but in general polyp less than 1 cm is nothing to worry about. You need to monitor size of polyp every 3 months and may need gall bladder removal if symptoms are there or its size reached to 1 cm.
Next Steps
Liver function test, and as per symptoms

After carefully reviewing your ultrasound report, I would reassure you that there is no immediate cause for alarm. The scan is largely reassuring, and the two findings highlightedâthe 5.5 mm gallbladder polyp and the 11.4 mm left renal cortical cystâare common incidental findings that are usually benign.
Next Steps
The Gallbladder polyp needs follow-up, but not panic. a 5.5 mm polyp in an otherwise healthy person is generally managed with surveillance rather than surgery.
