Have Problem Of Hydrocele. Feel Discomfort. Treated Through Medicines? Masturbating Affects?

Hello sir,

I have problem of hydrocele since the age of 12 years. Now I am 33 years old. It is not very big and there is no pain either. But I feel some discomfort and needs to remain conscious about it not being visible. Is it possible to get it treated through medicines?
In Bangalore what are the options I have got. Also, does masturbating affects my condition in any way? I am unmarried and have never had sex so far.

Hello!

Thank you for the query.

Hydrocele is a benign testicle lesion which usually does not cause any symptoms at all. However if it gets large enough can cause discomfort and compress surrounding tissues. It is not associated with masturbating and there is no medicine which can treat eat.
If it is large and gives you discomfort you can ask a surgeon about Winkelmans surgery. This is the best way to treat it.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
