Brief Answer:
1-3 weeks for proper healing

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.
The period taken for recovery from Hydrocele operations is fro one to three weeks depending upon the size of the hydrocele.
If the hydrocele is very large, the healing still may occur within 1 - 3 weeks but the time taken for regression to normal position/size can be a few months.

I hope this answers your query.
Please feel free to ask relevant queries if you need to or if you feel that there is a gap of communication.
