Hydrocoele: A hydrocele is a collection of fluid in the scrotum. Most develop for no apparent reason, are harmless and can be left alone. If needed, a small operation can usually cure the problem. In a small number of cases, a hydrocele is due to an underlying problem with a testicle (testis). https://patient.info/health/hydrocele-in-adults

That's generally: correct..small aymptomatic hydroceoles ( no symptoms) do not need treatment but , my opinion only, most do tend to enlarge and the larger they are the more complex the treatment gets! I would consult a Board Certified UROLOGIST or GENERAL SURGEON for a second opinion! Hope this helps! Dr Z
