Patient's question:
I haven't felt very well in my body recently, especially not comfortable in the lower abdomen, and I don't know what's wrong. Later, I had my child take me to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor told me that I have hydrocele. What should I do about hydrocele surgery? How should I proceed with hydrocele surgery?Doctor's answer:
Hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis of the testis is soft, elastic, and cystic in texture. The testis and epididymis cannot be palpated. The transillumination test is positive. Hydrocele of the inguinal canal or above the testis is located in the inguinal canal or above the testis, with a clear boundary from the testis. When there is hydrocele of the inguinal canal or above the testis, a pear-shaped mass can be felt in the scrotum, and the testis cannot be palpated. In cases of communicating hydrocele, the fluid-filled sac can shrink or disappear when lying down. It is recommended that you visit a formal urology hospital at your convenience for examination. The doctor will conduct specialized examinations based on your condition to identify the cause and condition, provide personalized treatment, and achieve the ideal treatment effect.
