A member asked:

My hydrocele was opertaed in a month now but fluid still accumulating confirmed by my surgeon.how many days or month can i go for hydrocele repair.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hydrocele: If your hydrocele was simply aspirated in the office with a syringe, it is very likely to recur. If you had an open incisional procedure to remove the hydrocele either it was done incorrectly or blood has now cumulated in the scrotum creating a hematoma. Either way you should discuss it with a urologist.
