Hence your doctor would have prescribed tablets which are antibiotics. The treatment of hydrocele is surgery. If your grandfather is healthy and is able to walk and perform all routine duties well, then it is recommended that he should undergo surgery.

Hello there is no role of medicines in a confirmed hydrocele. In patients with superadded infection antibiotics may have some role. The patient should wear a scrotal support and not let the testis hang as it will cause pain. Treatment of choice for hydrocele is surgery. It's a small surgery and can be done under local anesthesia. The patient can be discharged on the same day. I would suggest you to consult a good surgeon specialist to have a final say. Regards.
