Hello dear,
Thanks for the query.
Swelling of leg and scrotum means lymphatic blockadge.
Surgery is the only treatment available for this.
Whether it is completly curable or not will depend on the investigations to know how much blockadge is there. XXXXXXX a surgeon soon.
Let me know if you have any other query.
Thank you
