Patient's question:
My baby was found to have hydrocele at six months, and it resolved on its own within a month. Now at one year, the baby swells one testicle when crying hard, and the swelling subsides shortly after the crying stops. It's on the same side as the previous hydrocele. Is it a recurrence of hydrocele, or something else?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, it is more likely that the child has a hernia. It is recommended to take the child to the general surgery department of a hospital for a follow-up examination. An ultrasound can be performed for a thorough check, as it can help diagnose the condition. It is best to seek timely treatment after diagnosis. The above is the advice for the question "What should I do if my baby is found to have hydrocele at half a year old?" I hope it helps you, and wish you good health!
