A member asked:
Can fluid be removed from hydrocele for the time being til surgery??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Needle aspiration is possible, however the fluid will re-accumulate and we tend to minimize this procedure to avoid infection. But it is possible. Discuss the risks and benefits of this with your doctor before proceeding.
