What Causes Swelling Scrotum?

I have been noticing swelling of my scrotum for the past few years..The scrotum is enlarging gradually and have become heavier.Also I have been experiencing pain along the groins. Six months ago, when i consulted a Doctor he diagnosed it as bilateral hernia and i underwent a hernia surgery. However after the surgery the enlargement of scrotum has become faster. Is is hydrocil?

Hello,

It may be due to several causes. For further assessment you may require detailed evaluation by surgeon. You may require ultrasound scrotum after consultation. Further treatment mainly depends upon the underlying condition. You may require detailed examination to rule out any other possibilities for hydrocele or varicocele. Use scrotal support. Avoid strenuous activity.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
