Will the bilateral hydrocele disappear on its own?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Hydrocele happens due to a mismatch in fluid formation and absorption within the sac around the testis. Once fluid produced is more than absorbed, it collects, and the size gradually increases. Some hydroceles may remain the same size. Sometimes, if it occurs due to some inflammation in the testis, it may reduce or disappear if the inflammation is treated. In your case, if the size is small or not bothersome, we can wait. However, if the size is more or it is causing cosmetic issues or heaviness, we need to operate and remove one or both side hydroceles. You can send me an ultrasound report here. Till then, use scrotal support or tight-fitting underwear.

Take care.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. If there is an increase in size or pain, consider getting surgery done for both sides.

Let me know if there is any query.

Hi,

I understand your concern. Medicines do not work for hydrocele. Sometimes size may vary. Also, needle aspiration is not advised as fluid collects again. Normal activity can be done.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I suggest you get a urine routine and urine culture test done along with CBC (complete blood count) and serum creatinine. Do you have any cough, cold, urine-burning sensation, or other symptoms? I suggest you take a tablet of Nitrofurantoin 100 mg twice daily for seven days for urine infection after giving a urine sample and a tablet of Crocin (Paracetamol) 500 mg for fever three times a day or as needed. Kindly let me know the reports.

Thank you.

Hello,

I have seen the attached reports (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). Yes, there is an infection, most likely in hydrocele. Repeat TC (total count) after five to seven days, and let me know when the urine culture report comes. If the fever does not subside or the fever comes again, or there is any weakness, get checked by your doctor if it requires admission and antibiotic injections.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have seen the reports attached (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity). Urine culture is reported as sterile, meaning no active infection in the urine. How is your fever? Do you feel weak? If better, complete the seven-day course and let me know.

Thank you.
