Patient's question:
My two testicular tunics have a large amount of fluid accumulated inside, respectively. When touched with the hand, there is a fluctuating sensation. When squeezed with the hand, the fluid accumulated inside the tunics remains within the tunics and does not change in volume, nor can it be transferred to other places (such as the abdominal cavity). The entire testicles and scrotum do not show symptoms of inflammation, such as redness, swelling, heat, or pain, and there are no other discomforts. There is also no occurrence of infection due to skin damage, so it does not seem to be caused by inflammation. How should testicular hydrocele be treated better?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, hydrocele is a cyst formed by the accumulation of fluid in the tunica vaginalis exceeding the normal amount. A small amount can be absorbed spontaneously, while a large amount can be treated through methods such as fluid aspiration or surgery.Advice: For hydrocele of the testis, it is recommended to go to a professional and regular hospital specializing in infertility and sterility for comprehensive examinations to identify the cause. Under the guidance of a doctor, treatment should be carried out. Generally, surgical treatment has a good effect, and attention should be paid to preventing wound infection after surgery.
