What is Hydrocele?
A hydrocele is a fluid-filled swelling surrounding the testicle, leading to enlargement of the scrotum. It may occur in newborns, adults, or elderly patients.
Hydrocele is usually painless initially but may gradually increase in size and cause discomfort, heaviness, or difficulty walking.
Symptoms of Hydrocele
Common symptoms include:
- Swelling of scrotum
- Heaviness in testicles
- Mild pain or discomfort
- Feeling of fluid-filled sac
- Difficulty during walking or sitting in large hydroceles
- Cosmetic concern
Causes of Hydrocele
Hydrocele may develop due to:
- Infection
- Trauma
- Inflammation
- Previous surgery
- Aging
- Congenital causes in children
Sometimes hydrocele may be associated with hernia or infection, requiring proper surgical evaluation.
Diagnosis of Hydrocele
Dr. Vimal Detroja performs detailed clinical examination and may advise:
- Ultrasound of scrotum
- Blood tests

Ultrasound helps differentiate hydrocele from hernia, varicocele, tumor, or other scrotal conditions.
