Patient's question:
The left testicle is three to five times larger than normal, with a cystic mass palpable by hand, mild pain, and sometimes mild left lower abdominal pain. It has a history of nearly ten years. A CT scan was performed, revealing hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis. How should this be treated?Doctor's answer:
If it is diagnosed that there is hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis of the testis, surgical treatment needs to be given. It is recommended that you take the detailed examination results to the general surgery department for follow-up. Oral medication is not very effective for hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis of the testis. Surgical treatment needs to be scheduled. The condition of the testis is prone to recurrence, and long-term medication needs to be maintained. Moreover, for male patients, it is necessary to go to a professional and regular hospital for diagnosis in a timely manner, and treatment should be considered based on the examination results. Also, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual life.
