My son is 4 years old. Recently, I found that his scrotum is enlarged and soft to the touch, like a lot of water. Husband's friend is a doctor, said that is the testicular hydrocele, need surgery. Now let's talk about hydrocele surgery.

Hydrocele surgery

First, surgical treatment is suitable for large hydrocele, generally requires testicular tunica vaginalis turnover, spermatic cord hydrocele cyst stripping, communicating hydrocele is in the sheath process high ligation and tunica vaginalis turnover. Small hydrocele can be treated by cyst puncture, aspiration and injection of sclerosing agent (such as tetracycline solution) after aspiration of hydrocele. The effect is good, but the complications are controversial. Preoperative and postoperative medication, mainly antibiotics, is to prevent and treat infection, to ensure the success of the operation. For elderly patients, support therapy should be strengthened, and a small amount of whole blood or human albumin can be given as appropriate. Hemostatic drugs were used after operation to reduce the bleeding of scrotal wall or tunica vaginalis.

Second: eat more high protein, high vitamin, easy to digest, cellulose rich diet, improve body resistance, prevent constipation. Diet as far as possible to semi liquid food, eat easy to digest food, reduce the burden of gastrointestinal. But the nutrition must be comprehensive, not suitable to eat food: high protein, high vitamins, low fat and low salt diet, spicy stimulation, fat and thick greasy, barbecue, pickled food try not to eat

Third: the incidence rate of hydrocele in tropical area is high, and it is related to filariasis infection. Therefore, mosquito control measures are important. Hydrocele in infants is congenital, but in adults, it grows with age, and the function of lymphatic system is sound. Most of them can be absorbed by themselves without urgent treatment. They can be observed dynamically and visited regularly.
