Suggest Treatment For Reducing A Hydrocele

Hi, I am a 40 yo white male. I had a right inguinal hernia repair 14 days ago and have developed a hydrocele at the same location per my surgeon on my follow-up appointment 11 days post surgery. It is rather large, somewhat painful and itchy. Is there anything I can do to reduce the hydrocele?
