Have what appears to be a hydrocele above the right testicle. As the name implies it is fluid filling one side of the scrotum and causing swelling on that side. It can occur on both sides also. Caused by injury, infection and a host of other causes. I do work out with dumb bells and injury is a possibility. It affects infants and roughly 1 percent of adult men. Tested negative for UTI and STD's are not a possibility for me. Have an ultrasound scheduled for later in the month but in the interim am curious if anyone here has personal experience they would be willing to share. In infants they resolve on their own and sometimes in adult men they can resolve on their own but most often need surgical intervention to drain. Would be interested in any instance where it has diminished on its own or anyone who either had it surgically removed or aspirated using syringe? Of all the bizarre things that can happen!
