How should hydrocele be treated

summary

My son was born nearly half a year ago. A few days ago, I found that the scrotum of the child was a little abnormal. One side of the scrotum was a little big. It was scary. I went to see a doctor. The doctor said it was hydrocele, so how to treat hydrocele? Let me give you a detailed introduction.

How should hydrocele be treated

First, the principle of hydrocele treatment is that the cyst with small volume, low tension and asymptomatic need not be operated in a hurry. Especially for infants under one year old, it is still possible for them to disappear by themselves. But for the large volume, high tension, because it can affect the testicular blood circulation, leading to testicular atrophy, it should be timely surgical treatment.

Second: hydrocele generally children with the growth of age may be self absorption and healing, but there are not self-healing, can be in 1 year old surgery. But if the hydrocele is communicating, it needs timely surgical treatment to avoid testicular compression and affect development. The risk of surgery is not great. Don't worry about it.

Third: newborn infants in the testicular hydrocele often disappear before the age of two, so do not rush to treatment. If it doesn't disappear after two years old. Puncture and aspiration were performed. Most of them have no recurrence after aspiration. If this method can not be cured, it can be operated as soon as possible. Long term hydrocele can lead to infertility.
