Hydrocele Treatment

A hydrocele is a painless swelling in the scrotum caused by the collection of fluid around the testicle. It is common in newborns but can also occur in adult men due to injury, infection, or inflammation.

While hydrocele is usually not dangerous, large or persistent swelling may require surgical treatment.


Symptoms of Hydrocele

  • Swelling in one or both sides of the scrotum

  • Feeling of heaviness in the scrotum

  • Mild discomfort

  • Increase in size over time

  • Usually painless (pain may occur if infected)

If swelling becomes large or uncomfortable, medical evaluation is recommended.


Causes of Hydrocele

  • Injury to the scrotum

  • Infection

  • Inflammation

  • After hernia surgery

  • Congenital (present from birth)

Proper diagnosis helps determine the best treatment approach.


Treatment Options We Offer

Observation

Small and painless hydroceles may not require immediate treatment.

Hydrocelectomy (Surgical Treatment)

This is the most effective and permanent treatment. The excess fluid is removed, and the sac is repaired to prevent recurrence.

Benefits include:

  • Permanent solution

  • Minimal complications

  • Short hospital stay

  • Faster recovery

The procedure is usually performed under anesthesia and completed within a short duration.


Recovery After Surgery

  • Mild swelling for a few days

  • Supportive undergarments recommended

  • Avoid heavy lifting for a few weeks

  • Follow-up visits to monitor healing

Most patients return to normal activities within a short period.
