Hydrocele Treatment in Hyderabad: Expert Care at Lux Hospitals
Men frequently suffer from hydrocele, a disorder where fluid builds up around the testicle and causes scrotal enlargement. Although hydrocele usually doesn’t hurt, it can create heaviness, discomfort, and aesthetic issues. Complications may result if treatment is not received.
Trust the skilled surgeons at Lux Hospitals for cutting-edge hydrocele treatment in Hyderabad. We specialize in hydrocele operations that are minimally invasive and effective, guaranteeing a speedy and easy recovery. We are the go-to option for hydrocele treatment because of our cutting-edge facilities and highly qualified medical staff.
What is Hydrocele?
A hydrocele is a condition where excess fluid collects in the sac surrounding the testicle, leading to swelling in the scrotum. It can occur on one or both sides and is more common in newborns and older men. Though hydroceles are usually harmless, severe cases may require surgical treatment to prevent complications.
Types of Hydrocele:
- Communicating Hydrocele: Occurs when the fluid moves in and out of the sac due to an unclosed opening in the abdomen.
- Non-Communicating Hydrocele: This happens when the fluid gets trapped and does not drain, leading to persistent swelling.
Symptoms of Hydrocele:
- Swelling in the scrotum (may be soft or firm)
- The feeling of heaviness in the testicles
- Discomfort or mild pain in severe cases
- Increase in scrotal size over time
Treatment Options for Hydrocele
At Lux Hospitals, we offer both non-surgical and surgical treatment of hydrocele, depending on the severity of the condition.
Non-Surgical Treatments:
- Observation: Small, painless hydroceles in children may resolve on their own.
- Medication: If an infection is present, anti-inflammatory medications and antibiotics may be helpful.
- Aspiration: involves using a needle to drain the fluid, but as hydroceles frequently return, this is only a temporary fix.
Surgical Treatment:
- Hydrocelectomy: A long-term and efficient remedy for hydrocele. The fluid-filled sac is removed during the process, and the fluid source is sealed off.
- Laser Hydrocele Surgery: A minimally invasive approach with reduced pain and faster healing.
Hydrocele Surgery Recovery
The recovery process after hydrocele treatment is usually smooth and quick:
- Hospital Stay: Most people can return home the same day.
- Pain Management: Mild discomfort can be managed with prescribed painkillers.
- Healing Time: Complete recovery takes around 2-3 weeks.
- Post-Surgery Care: Patients are advised to avoid heavy lifting and strenuous activities for a few weeks.
