Can Large Hydrocele Be Treated Without Surgery?Hydrocele
3 months ago
I have a big hydrocele and want to know if hydrocele treatment without surgery is really effective. I have tried Ayurvedic medicine for hydrocele, but I didn't really experience much relief Are there any effective hydrocele medicines that can reduce swelling and treat other symptoms. Also, what is the difference between hydrocele and varicocele, and do both conditions require different treatment approaches?

I understand your concerns. In large hydroceles, non-surgical treatments, like ayurvedic medicine or home remedies, do not reliably reduce the swelling. Also, there are no oral medications that can help shrink hydroceles. You can manage pain and discomfort temporarily with safe analgesics like paracetamol or ibuprofen.
For a clear understanding, let me tell you that a hydrocele is fluid around the testicle with usually a painless swelling, while a varicocele is enlarged veins in the scrotum, often associated with a dull ache or fertility issues. Also, the treatment approaches are different. Hydrocele is resolved by surgery if large or symptomatic, whereas varicocele may be monitored or treated surgically only when it causes pain or fertility problems. Non-surgical options are mainly supportive in both conditions.
