A child has hydrocele in the left testicle.

Patient's question:

A child has hydrocele in the left testicle, and currently sometimes has epididymitis. Hello, should I be treated when the testicle doesn't hurt?

Doctor's answer:

Hydrocele must be treated, it's a minor surgery. Don't let it interfere with growth and development when the child grows up, or even affect fertility later. Epididymitis, in addition to hydrocele, must be actively treated. Otherwise, when the child grows up, it will first interfere with growth and development, and secondly affect fertility. The condition of the testicles may be prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. For male patients, they should go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis immediately. Treatment should be considered based on the results of the examination. Also, pay attention to restricting sexual activity and maintaining a good mood. Finally, wish all patients a speedy recovery.
