Patient's question:
My husband had a hydrocele before, but his body didn't show any obvious symptoms. He didn't even notice it. But recently, he has been feeling a heavy and sensation in his scrotum.Hello, how should hydrocele be treated?
Doctor's answer:
The choice should be based on the size of the cyst, clinical diagnostic symptoms, and the presence of complications. Conservative treatment is suitable for patients with milder symptoms and requires periodic follow-up examinations. For patients with hematospermia symptoms, oral antibiotics and hemostatic agents should be administered, and if necessary, a reduction enzyme inhibitor can be used. Surgical treatment is required for patients with more prominent symptoms than the second-order neuron node and those that are difficult to heal on their own. The methods include cyst removal, unilateral seminal vesicle resection, suprapubic bag-shaped debridement, and transurethral cyst decortication.
