What is hydrocele surgery?
A hydrocele is a buildup of fluid around the testicle that causes swelling of the scrotum. It is usually painless but may cause heaviness or discomfort when walking or sitting.
In adults, if the hydrocele persists, grows or causes discomfort, the specialist may recommend surgical repair, often as an outpatient procedure. Afterwards: relative rest, wound care and no strenuous effort until you are cleared.
